How Joel 2 fits the whole book
A locust plague becomes a sign of God's judgment and a call to wholehearted repentance — with the promise of the Spirit poured out. Chapter 2 of Joel contributes to this larger story by deepening one or more of the book's themes — for example, god's character and glory and sin, grace, and redemption.
