The Bible book of Joel written during the ninth century of B.C.E., describes a plague of insects, including locusts, that is similar to the one that John sees. (Joel 2:1-11, 25) It was to cause much discomfort for apostate Israel but would also result in individual Jew's repenting and returning to Jehovah's favor. (Joel 2:6,12-14) When that time arrived, Jehovah would pour out his spirit upon "every sort of flesh,' while fearful signs and alarming portents would precede "the coming of the great and fear-inspiring day of Jehovah." - JOEL 2:11, 28-32.
