Charles Ellicott Commentary Joel 1:20

"Yea, the beasts of the field pant unto thee; for the water brooks are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness." — Joel 1:20 (ASV)

The beasts of the field cry also unto thee.— The prophet has cried to God; the very beasts echo that cry, “looking up” to Him. Yet, man seems silent.
