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)
But the Lord’s word came to him, Be at peace, and have no fear; thou shalt not die. (Judges 6, 23)
When next Madian and Amalec and the peoples of the east crossed the Jordan together, and encamped in the plain of Jezrael, (Judges 6, 33)
then he sent messengers out all through Manasses, and Manasses, too, were of his company; then other messengers to Aser, Zabulon and Nephthali, and these came out to meet him. (Judges 6, 35)
Jerobaal, then, (or Gedeon) rose at break of day and led his army to the spring called the Spring of Harad. The camp of Madian lay there in the valley, with a high hill to the south of it. (Judges 7, 1)
So he would have food left, and a trumpet for each man; then he sent the others back to their own dwelling-places, and with three hundred men prepared to give battle.The camp of Madian lay there in the valley below him, (Judges 7, 8)
and that night the Lord said to him, Bestir thyself, and go down into their camp; I have left them at thy mercy. (Judges 7, 9)
Listen to what they are saying, and it will give thee courage, bid thee go down more confidently to the attack. So Gedeon and his servant Phara made their way down to a part of the camp where sentries were on guard. (Judges 7, 11)
There were Madian and Amalec, and all the tribes of the east, scattered through the valley, like a swarm of locusts; countless as the sea sand, their camels lay beside them. (Judges 7, 12)
As Gedeon approached, one of the men was telling his neighbour of a dream that had come to him, and this was the way of it: It looked, in my dream, as if a barley griddle-cake went rolling along and tumbled into the Madianite camp, where it struck the first tent it reached and overturned it, so that it lay flat on the ground. (Judges 7, 13)
Gedeon fell on his knees when he heard what the dream was, and how it was interpreted. Back he went to the camp of Israel, and cried out, Bestir yourselves, the Lord has left the Madianite camp at our mercy. (Judges 7, 15)
Mark what I do, and do the same, he told them; when once I have reached the edge of the camp, follow, all of you, my example. (Judges 7, 17)
