요엘 4:9 미드라쉬: Otzar Midrashim & Midrash Tehillim

And I rested for my prayer and also for my fasting for a day until it was revealed to me that this was the angel and he said to me and asked me something, I said to him, Lord, what will happen after these? The angel said to him, after all this the people of the West increase with large soldiers and they come mixed up and make war with the people of the East in their country and kill them, and the rest flee before them and come to Alexandria, and they will be chased by the people of the West and come there, and there will be a great war, and the people of the East will flee from there and come as far as Egypt and stay And they will take it from a customer and make it a wasteland, to fulfill what was said Egypt will be a wasteland (Joel 4:9). And they passed through the land of the deer and it was consumed by them, and everyone who was captured will not return until the Messiah comes, and when I heard this I wept very much. The angel said to him, Simon! what are you crying for I told him, Abraham's sons Isaac and Jacob will not have an escape in his days. He said to me, the matter is very difficult, if you put meat on the fire, you will not be able to escape from its smell, so Israel is not saved, and anyone who comes into the room and runs away and hides will be saved. He will fall by the sword (ibid. 13:15), and they will pass through the land of the deer and horses, as it is said, "And he came through the lands and washed and passed over" (Daniel 11:30), and they came to the rivers of the valleys and they were in the middle of it, and there will be a great war that all the prophets prophesied about and they will become streams and the waters of the Euphrates to the blood, and the rest will not be able to drink from it, and from there the kingdom of the East will break. And after all these, a bold-faced king will stand and do three and a half years, and at the beginning of his reign, when he stands, he takes the rich and diverts (a missing language, Zephaniah 3:15) from their wealth and kills them, and money will not escape its owners, as it is said that their silver and gold cannot be redeemed (Ezekiel 7 19), and his counsel and his thoughts will not stand on him, and anyone who mentions Shema Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one, will be killed, and anyone who says, The God of Abraham will be killed. 7:25), times - they are the times, and religion - is the Torah, as it is said that the fire of religion is for him (Deuteronomy 33), and in his days there will be great trouble for Israel, and everyone who is exiled to the upper Galilee will escape, as it is said that there will be a plague on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem (Joel 3:5) Witness Demati condemns and kills Israel until he reaches Damascus, and when he reaches Damascus, God Almighty gives help and success to Israel, and in his days there will be strife and war in the world, and a city will fight with its friend and a country with a country and a nation against a nation and a nation against a nation, and there will be no peace for those who come and go, as it is said And my troubles came to man, and they went as blind (Zephaniah 1:17). And with the Lord there will be turmoil and trouble upon them for three years, and they will be given in his hand until the end of the three years, as it is said and they will be in his hand [עַד עִדָּן וְעִדָּנִין וּפְלַג עִדָּן] until Iddan and Iddain and peleg Iddan (Daniel 7:25), Iddan - one year, Iddain - two years, peleg Iddan - half a year, It is found that there are three years from the cancellation of the circumcision and prayer, which is said to have taken place at the time of the removal of the tabernacle and to give a glimpse of heaven for one thousand two hundred and ninety days (ibid. 12:11), and they are three and a half years. And there arose a king who put them to the frost, as it was said, and we gave the shadow of the desert (ibid. 11) and he was in front of you for three months, and after that, the sons of Ishmael made war with the Edomites in the valley of Acre, and immediately the Assyrians came upon them and drove them back, as it was said, "How long shall Assyria rest" (Numbers 24:22), and the fleet of the Hittites (ibid. 24) - these are Edomites who are destined to stand at the end of days, and when they go out as thieves they go out, as it is said if thieves come to you, etc. (Obadiah 1:5), and make war with the sons of Ishmael and kill A great number of them, and a great number of them gathered at streets of Akko, crushed with the iron and shame, and a water tank was brake with his fingers, and rush, rabble in Suswan (castle), and they joined legions with their people from Edom, and they came and made war in the valley of Acre until the horse was soaked up to its thigh in blood, and the children of Israel fled until they came to the valley of Jericho, and there they stood and said to one of his comrades, "Here we are fleeing, and let us rest." We bowed down and changed, and returned and waged another war in the Valley of Megiddo, and the Edomites fled and got into the ships, and a wind arose and brought them to Assyria, and they tormented the Assyrians and crossed the river. And at the end of nine months, the Assyrians went out and the Israelites and the Romans perished, as it was said, "How long shall Assyria be troubled"(Deuteronomy 24:20). And when you see Assyrians coming out and walking in the land of Israel, they are making peace, and Elijah the late comes out and announces peace to them as it was said, and it will be an Assyrian peace because it will come to our land (Micah 5:4), and the sons of Italy want to fight with them and the sons of Ishmael will almost return the kingdom to them, and there are not enough to take out their wives until Assyria captures them, and immediately a voice goes out and proclaims everywhere to the children of Israel: Go out and avenge God's vengeance on Edom, as it is said, I have given my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel (Ezekiel 25:14), and immediately the young men of the Israelites gather and listen and they reign A king from the seed of David reigned over them, and a dispute fell between one and another, and the children of the Land of Israel transgressed against the seed of David to fulfill what was said, and Israel transgressed in the house of David until this day (2 Chronicles 10:19).

Another interpretation regarding the Gittite. Isaiah said (Isaiah 5:16) "And the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in justice". When will the Lord be exalted? When he executes judgment on the nations of the world. What is written above this (Isaiah 5:15)? "And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled". At that time, the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment. Similarly, it is said (Ezekiel 38:18), "And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel..." and Joel says (Joel 4:9-11) "Proclaim ye this among the nations; prepare war; stir up the mighty men; let all the men of war draw near; let them come up. Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, I am strong. Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD." (Joel 4:2) "And I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land." What is the valley called Jehoshaphat? It is the valley in which the Lord will judge the nations. Similarly, it is said (Joel 3:14), "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision." The multitudes refer to (Jeremiah 25:33) "And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth". And then (Joel 4:17), "So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain." When will the Lord be seen upon Gath? Similarly, it is said (Micah 1:10), "Declare ye it not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust." At that time, victory will be given to Him. "To the chief Musician upon Gittith" - there are four Gittiths: for the sons of Korah (Psalm 8), "For the Chief Musician upon Gittith", "Come down", and "For the Chief Musician, set to the Gittith" (Psalm 81) "Sing aloud unto God our strength, make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob." This one is "upon Gittith."

"All nations surround me; three times Gog and Magog are destined to come up to Jerusalem, as Sennacherib came up to the Land of Israel, and as Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem. The first time it says, 'All nations surround me,' for all the world will be gathered and brought up to Jerusalem, as it is said, 'And many nations shall come and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob' (Micah 4:2). The entire portion ends, 'And they are curtains,' therefore it is said in the name of the Lord, 'for I will be to them a wall of fire round about' (Zechariah 2:9). The second time it says, 'Surround me, they surround me,' for all the nations will feel it and be brought up to Jerusalem, as it is said, 'Why do the nations rage, and the peoples imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed' (Psalms 2:1-2). And they are curtains; therefore it is said in the name of the Lord, 'for I will be to them a wall of fire round about' a second time. The third time it says, 'Surround me like bees,' for they will spread models over all the lands, to proclaim the war. As it is said, 'Proclaim ye this among the nations: Prepare for war' (Joel 4:9). And the entire portion ends, 'And they are curtains'; therefore it is said in the name of the Lord, 'for I will be to them a wall of fire round about' a third time."...
