Juízes 6:38 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 6:38

And it was so
The Lord condescended to work this miracle for the confirmation of his faith, and for the encouragement of those that were with him; the fleece was wet with the dew of heaven, and all the ground about it dry:

for he rose up early in the morning;
being eagerly desirous of knowing whether his request would be granted, and how it would be with the fleece:

and thrust the fleece together;
to satisfy himself whether the dew had fallen on it, and there was any moisture in it, which by being squeezed together he would more easily perceive:

and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water;
so that it appeared it had not only fallen on it, but it had taken in a large quantity of it; the word here used is the same as in ( Judges 5:25 ) (See Gill on Judges 5:25); the Targum calls it a flagon.

Juízes 6:38 In-Context

36 Disse Gideão a Deus: Se hás de livrar a Israel por minha mão, como disseste,
37 eis que eu porei um velo de lã na eira; se o orvalho estiver somente no velo, e toda a terra ficar enxuta, então conhecerei que hás de livrar a Israel por minha mão, como disseste.
38 E assim foi; pois, levantando-se de madrugada no dia seguinte, apertou o velo, e espremeu dele o orvalho, que encheu uma taça.
39 Disse mais Gideão a Deus: Não se acenda contra mim a tua ira se ainda falar só esta vez. Permite que só mais esta vez eu faça prova com o velo; rogo-te que só o velo fique enxuto, e em toda a terra haja orvalho.
40 E Deus assim fez naquela noite; pois só o velo estava enxuto, e sobre toda a terra havia orvalho.
