Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: יְהוָה (Yahweh) meaning "the LORD" and אֵל (El) meaning "God."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: G2493 (Ἰωήλ, Iōēl): This is the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew name Joel, used in the Septuagint and the New Testament. It appears in the context of the prophecy quoted by Peter in Acts 2:16, referring to the prophecy of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit as foretold by the prophet Joel.

Joel's name and his prophetic message emphasize the centrality of God in the life of Israel and the importance of recognizing His sovereignty and responding to His call for repentance and faithfulness.

Usage: Joel is used as a proper noun, specifically as a masculine given name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of several individuals, most notably the prophet Joel, who authored the Book of Joel.

Context: Joel the Prophet: Joel is one of the twelve minor prophets in the Old Testament. The Book of Joel is attributed to him, and it is a part of the collection known as the Twelve Minor Prophets. The book is primarily concerned with a locust plague that devastates the land of Judah, which Joel interprets as a divine judgment and a precursor to the "Day of the LORD." Joel calls for repentance and promises restoration and blessings for the people if they return to God. Key themes include the sovereignty of God, the call to repentance, and the promise of the outpouring of the Spirit, as seen in Joel 2:28-29, which is quoted in Acts 2:17-21.
Other Individuals Named Joel:
• Joel, the son of Samuel: He was appointed by his father as a judge over Israel, but he and his brother Abijah were corrupt, leading to the people's demand for a king (1 Samuel 8:1-5).
• Joel, a descendant of Reuben: Mentioned in 1 Chronicles 5:4, he is listed in the genealogies of the tribe of Reuben.
• Joel, a leader of the tribe of Gad: He is noted in 1 Chronicles 5:12.
• Joel, a Levite: He is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 15:11 as one of the Levites whom David called to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem.
• Joel, a chief of the Gershonites: He is listed in 1 Chronicles 23:8 and 26:22.
