Joel 2:9
They storm the city;
What it says
They storm the city, run along the wall, climb houses, and enter through windows like thieves.
What it is doing
This verse brings the threat into intimate urban space, showing no refuge remains.
In context
1Blow the ram’s horn in Zion; 2a day of darkness and gloom, 3Before them a fire devours, 4Their appearance is like that of horses, 5With a sound like that of chariots 6Nations writhe in horror before them; 7They charge like mighty men; 8They do not jostle one another; 9They storm the city; 10Before them the earth quakes; 11The LORD raises His voice
