Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Joel 2:27
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
27. know that I am in the midst of Israel —As in the Old Testament dispensation God was present by the Shekinah, so in the New Testament first, for a brief time by the Word made flesh dwelling among us ( :- ), and to the close of this dispensation by the Holy Spirit in the Church ( Matthew 28:20 ), and probably in a more perceptible manner with Israel when restored ( Matthew 28:20- : ). never be ashamed —not an unmeaning repetition from Joel 2:26 . The twice-asserted truth enforces its unfailing certainty. As the "shame" in Joel 2:26 refers to temporal blessings, so in this verse it refers to the spiritual blessings flowing from the presence of God with His people (compare Jeremiah 3:16 ; Jeremiah 3:17 ; Revelation 21:3 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-28" class="com-number"
