Joel 2:24

And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil.

Ver. 24. And the floors shall be full of wheat] Such fatness shall God's footsteps drop, that your houses shall be full of all "precious and pleasant riches," Proverbs 24:4; so that you shall, as rich men love to do, de pleno tollere acervo. Only take heed you have not, as that rich fool, animam triticeam, a wheaten soul, that your abundance get not within you, Tα ενοντα, as the Pharisees' did, Luke 11:41 (so that they did not more possess than were possessed of what they had), that ye set not your hearts upon your riches, Psalms 62:11 .

- “ difficile est opibus non tradere mentem. ”

(Martial.)

And the fats shall overflow] There shall be plenty of all things, as Proverbs 3:10, the fruits and effect of that rain promised before. And doth not God daily turn water into wine, when of water falling upon the vine, and concocted by the heat of the sun, he produceth the grape, whence wine is pressed?
