A subtle change of understanding
We just received the video about Joel's book on broadcasting. And I have noticed a remarkable, but very little point of understanding. Let's see

Joel's book says:
(Joel 1:4) what the caterpillar left, the lobster ate it; and what left the lobster, the lobster crawling, without wings, ate it; and what the lobster crawling, without wings, has left , the cockroach ate it.

For many years, even since Rutherford, the understanding of the slave has been the following:
Watchtower 1998
How vividly describes this prophecy to the current symbolic locust army! Today, the army of locusts of the Lord also march forward. There are no "Wall" of opposition. Instead of compromising their integrity to God, they are willing to die, like the thousands of witnesses who 'fell between the shells' for refusing to acclaim Hitler during the Nazi regime in Germany.
The current army of locusts gives a comprehensive testimony in "the city" of Christianity (Joel 2:9). It does it in the whole world. It still overcomes all obstacles, enters millions of homes, tackles people on the streets, talks to them on the phone and gets in touch with them for every possible means by declaring the message of the Lord. Indeed, he has distributed billions of biblical publications, and will distribute many more in his incessant ministry, which is made publicly and home at home (Acts 20:20, 21).
Watchtower 2008
The Prophet Joel Illustrated the work of evangelize of Christians with a devastating insect infestation that included locusts (Joel 1:4). Advancing as an army, locusts overcome obstacles, enter houses and devour everything they find in their path (read Joel 2:2, 7-9). This is a very graphic description of the persistent and comprehensive preaching that the people of God do today.

But by watching the video about Joel's book, we noticed two things:
First, he makes a meticulous description of the locusts, but not a word of his modern application.
Second, about the 1:50th minute, with the image of the locusts on the screen, it is said: "look at how bad it is to those who oppose God". and nothing more.

It is a clear sign that the previous interpretation is no longer maintained.

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.

They always send me what I order, and their also Jehovah's Witnesses, that send us the merchandise we order!  You can check out these websites, and they might have what your looking for! I hope I have been helpful in assisting you, Darlene! Agape love, Shirley!😀
