Joel 1:12

_ _ pomegranate — a tree straight in the stem growing twenty feet high; the fruit is of the size of an orange, with blood-red colored pulp.

_ _ palm tree — The dates of Palestine were famous. The palm is the symbol of Judea on coins under the Roman emperor Vespasian. It often grows a hundred feet high.

_ _ apple tree — The Hebrew is generic, including the orange, lemon, and pear tree.

_ _ joy is withered away — such as is felt in the harvest and the vintage seasons (Psalms 4:7; Isaiah 9:3).
