Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Joel 3:11

_ _ Assemble — “Hasten” [Maurer].

_ _ thither — to the valley of Jehoshaphat.

_ _ thy mighty ones — the warriors who fancy themselves “mighty ones,” but who are on that very spot to be overthrown by Jehovah [Maurer]. Compare “the mighty men” (Joel 3:9). Rather, Joel speaks of God’s really “mighty ones” in contrast to the self-styled “mighty men” (Joel 3:9; Psalms 103:20; Isaiah 13:3; compare Daniel 10:13). Auberlen remarks: One prophet supplements the other, for they all prophesied only “in part.” What was obscure to one was revealed to the other; what is briefly described by one is more fully so by another. Daniel calls Antichrist a king, and dwells on his worldly conquests; John looks more to his spiritual tyranny, for which reason he adds a second beast, wearing the semblance of spirituality. Antichrist himself is described by Daniel. Isaiah (Isaiah 29:1-24), Joel (Joel 3:1-21) and Zechariah (Zechariah 12:1-14:21), describe his army of heathen followers coming up against Jerusalem, but not Antichrist himself.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Joel 3:9-17.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Joel 3:11

Round about — All round about Judah. Thither — Toward Jerusalem; the church and heritage of God. Thy mighty ones — All those mighty warriors whom thou wilt make use of successively to punish the oppressors of thy church.
