And now an angel of the Lord came and waited by the oak-tree at Ephra, which then belonged to Joas, of the family of Abiezer. His son Gedeon had gone out to the wine-press, so as to thresh his wheat there unobserved by the Madianites, (Judges 6, 11)
and with that the angel of the Lord held out the staff he carried, and touched meat and unleavened bread with the tip of it; whereupon fire blazed out from the rock, and all was consumed. And he looked, and the angel of the Lord was there no longer. (Judges 6, 21)
So Gedeon built an altar there and called it the Peace of the Lord; it stands there to this day.This, then, was Gedeon’s home, in Ephra, that belongs to the clan of Abiezer. (Judges 6, 24)
So Gedeon did as the Lord bade him, with ten servants of his father’s to help him, at dead of night; he would not do it by day for fear of his kindred and his fellow-citizens. (Judges 6, 27)
And when these citizens awoke next day, there was Baal’s altar destroyed, and the wood about it cut down, and a second altar built, with the dead bull lying on it. (Judges 6, 28)
the Spirit of the Lord wrapped Gedeon round. One blast of his horn rallied Abiezer’s clan behind him; (Judges 6, 34)
And they caught two Madianite chiefs, Oreb and Zeb, whom they put to death, Oreb at the Rock of Oreb and Zeb at Zeb’s Wine-press; then they went on with the pursuit of Madian. They were carrying the heads of Oreb and Zeb with them when they met Gedeon on the further side of Jordan. (Judges 7, 25)
Nay, answered he, what has my task been in comparison with yours? Abiezer’s whole vintage cannot match the gleanings Ephraim has gathered up. (Judges 8, 2)
See how the Lord would have Oreb and Zeb fall into your hands, not mine; what is my achievement beside yours? With such words he calmed the restless spirits that assailed him. (Judges 8, 3)
so he had recourse to the people of Socoth. I beseech you, he said, to provide food for these companions of mine, who are faint with hunger; we must needs overtake the Madianite kings, Zebee and Salmana. (Judges 8, 5)
Why, answered the chieftains of Socoth, you would think he came to us carrying the severed hands of Zebee and Salmana with him,✻ to hear the way he talks of providing food for this army of his. (Judges 8, 6)
So be it, said Gedeon; when the Lord has given me the mastery of Zebee and Salmana, I will come back and flay you with every thorn and brier that grows in the desert. (Judges 8, 7)
