Talmud for Joel 2:22
אַל־תִּֽירְאוּ֙ בַּהֲמ֣וֹת שָׂדַ֔י כִּ֥י דָשְׁא֖וּ נְא֣וֹת מִדְבָּ֑ר כִּֽי־עֵץ֙ נָשָׂ֣א פִרְי֔וֹ תְּאֵנָ֥ה וָגֶ֖פֶן נָתְנ֥וּ חֵילָֽם׃
Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth its fruit, the fig-tree and the vine do yield their strength.
Jerusalem Talmud Sheviit
Rebbi Jonah115Since R. Jonah was mentioned in the preceding paragraph, his homilies are appended here. said (Deut. 28:40): “Your olives will fall off,” one in 340 were kept116The numerical value of י̇ש̇ל̇ is 340. Rebbi Jonah said (Joel 2:22): “For the tree will bear its fruit” means that the tree is not bearing its fruit in this world117“This world” in the Yerushalmi means the world before the coming of the Messiah. The implication is that in the days of the Messiah produce will be so abundant that the rabbinic rules governing the details of tithing and Sabbatical will have to be changed., “and fig tree and vine will give their strength” means that they are not giving their strength in this world.
