Joel 3:7

_ _ raise them — that is, I will rouse them. Neither sea nor distance will prevent My bringing them back. Alexander, and his successors, restored to liberty many Jews in bondage in Greece [Josephus, Antiquities, 13.5; Wars of the Jews, 3.9, 2].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Joel 3:1-8.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Joel 3:7

I will raise them — This was fulfilled when Alexander, and his successors dismissed all the Jews that were slaves in Greece, and gave them leave to return to their own country.
