“Seen from this perspective, the pouring out of God’s spirit upon flesh means the establishment of new, vigorous life through God’s unreserved giving of himself to those who, in themselves, are rootless and feeble, especially in the approaching times of judgment.” (Page 66)

“Let the catastrophic threats to the present and the future move you to a total reorientation towards the attested and coming compassion of God!” (Page 15)

“Certainly ‘all flesh’ (כל־בשׂר) can mean the whole of humanity,82 indeed even animals as well as humans.83 Yet here it surely means not ‘the whole world’ as such,84 but ‘everybody’ in Israel, for according to the introduction in 2:19* this oracle also pertains to Yahweh’s people, and immediately preceding it the manifestation of Yahweh ‘in the midst of Israel’ has been announced (2:27*).” (Page 67)

“In the coming age they shall be incorporated fully into the community of the free, by being deigned worthy of the highest distinction along with all the rest.” (Page 67)

“His major theme is the Day of Yahweh. No other Old Testament witness gives it as detailed and systematic a treatment as he does.” (Page 12)
