Joel 3:2
Here, a calling to all nations (mankind) that we may repent (return to YHWH) and be saved: The Grace of Elohim, the Host of hosts. Amein and Amein!
King James Version (KJV)
2 I (YHWH, the Word and Works of Elohim) will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat (also Valley of YH’s judgment, see Joel 3:2 & 3:12), and will plead (dispute, rebuke, etc..) with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.“
This rebuke to occur because the Word and Works of Elohim have been scattered to all corners of the World, indeed lost it’s pureness (now in a valley where dead men reside, a place of death, a graveyard outside Jerusalem): A convicting of the fallen that they may see their evil ways and repent (turn back to YHWH, the true Word and Works of Elohim): If not die.
A prophecy to all generations – especially ours!
Paraphrasing YH’shua (YH’s salvation), “May Your Will (YHWH Elohim’s Word and Works) be done on earth (in us) as it is in heaven.”
