This particular passage (called the day of the Lord)? It sounds a lot like a "description" of weapons that the prophet Joel didn't quite understand, yet he described them with words such as "as" and "like". I'm not sure if this is helpful for the previous discussion or not helpful.

Hopefully, the more we read on it the more understanding it will bring. Thank you for that passage.

I came across another one and wanted to relay it to the three of you:

Isaiah 66:20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to My holy mountain Jerusalem, "saith the Lord, "as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.

A side note in my Bible says: "Swift beasts is Heb. kirkdroth, from kdrar to move in a circle; hence may mean (like English car)any vehicle on wheels. It is never used of animals."

It is interesting that these verses we have discussed all have to do with the end of days.

Horses ---- horses ---- and more horses on their way to Jerusalem.

So now we have Joel, and Isaiah, along with John and Zechariah telling us that there will be a lot of horses around Jerusalem in the end of days.
