Reading for August 12th
Read Joel 1.1-4 The locust plague.
Joel introduces the locust plague as one unparalleled in the living memory of his people
(compare 2.2).
In verse 4 the four terms for locust here and in 2.25 may refer to stages in the growth of the locust.
The meanings of the Hebrew terms are unclear, and the translations, cutting locust, etc., are only suggestions.
