JO'ED, [Hebrew.] A man’s name. 
JO'EL, [Heb. one that commands.] A man’s name. 
JO'EL, the fecond in number of the minor Hebrew 
prophets, as they hand in the Hebrew Bible, though pro¬ 
bably the fixtli in order of time, was the foil of Pethuel,- 
but of what tribe is uncertain. The time in which he 
lived, likewife, is doubtful. From fome expreflions which 
-occur in his predictions, it is generally thought that he 
prophefied after the captivity of the ten tribes, while the 
kingdom of Judah fcill fubfilted, and probably not long 
before its captivity. Biftiop Newcome, therefore, is dil- 
pofed to adopt the conjecture of Drufius, that he lived 
under the long reign of Manafleh, and before his conver¬ 
sion : that is, fome time between 697 and 660 B.C. The 
iubjefts of Joel’s predictions are, the evils of famine, de- 
folation,and captivity, which perfeverance in their idolatry 
and vices would bring upon the people of Judah; earned: 
exhortations to repentance, and promifes of a return of 
the divine favour upon their reformation; and the ulti¬ 
mate reftoration of the Jews to. their own land, their glo¬ 
rious eftablifliment under the Mefliah, and the deftruftion 
of their enemies. The charaCteriftics of this prophet 
are thus defcribed by the learned and judicious bilhop 
Lowth^ “ He is elegant, perfpicuous, copious, and fluent; 
he is alfo fublime, animated, and energetic. In the firft 
and fecond chapters he difplays the full force of the pro¬ 
phetic poetry, and (hows how naturally it inclines to the 
ufe of metaphors, allegories, and companions. Nor is 
the connection of the matter lefs clear and evident than 
ther complexion of the ftyle. This is exemplified in the 
difplay of the impending evils which gave rife to the 
prophecy; the exhortation to repentance; the promifes 
of happinefs and fuccefs, both terreftrial and eternal, to 
thole who become truly penitent; the reftoration of the 
Xfraelites; and the vengeance to be taken of their adver- 
faries. But, while we ,,'Jow this juft commendation to 
his perfpicuity both in language and arrangement, we 
muft not deny that there is fometimes great obfcurity 
oblervable in his fubjeft, and particularly in the latter 
part of the prophecy,”
