Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible recap.

0:13.3

Today we finished our 31st book of the Bible.

0:16.6

It was written by the minor prophet Joel.

0:18.9

We don't know anything about him even when he lived, but based on context clues, we can

0:23.5

narrow it down to about a 300-year time frame with the most recent part of that being post-exile.

1:06.2

In addition to not really knowing who he is or when he lived, he also tends to be more

1:10.0

vague than most other prophets.

1:11.9

He doesn't name any of Israel's sins specifically, unlike other prophets, and he barely mentions

1:16.8

which animations he's referring to.

1:19.2
