A terrifying plague (of locusts), economic collapse and the demand for a spiritual response. Sound timely? Delighted to welcome Ariel Koschitzky, a long time follower but first time presenter for this group who provides an excellent introduction to the themes and structure of the sefer, probes the question of when Yoel lived, and powerfully explores the themes of the chapter - that every significant moment requires a spiritual response. I found particularly interesting, the insight that in contrast to Hoshea where sins are everywhere, in the case of Yoel no mention is made of Israel's guilt - but that does not mean that the moment lacks religious meaning.

Calev Ben Dor uses our chapter as a glimpse into the geopolitical difficulties that the northern kingdom finds itself in. Samaria’s monarchy is vanishing Like foam upon water.

In my audio I attempt to explain why this chapter is illustrative of what makes nevi'im acharonim - the prophets of Hoshea's epoch - so unique compared to those who came before them. Text here: https://www.sefaria.org/Hosea.9
