Transcription: He reduced the size of Gideon's army from 32,000 to 300 men so as to leave no doubt that it was God, the God of the Hebrews who would fight this battle. In those days, the Israelites lived at the mercy of marauding tribes of Bedouins who had helped themselves to the produce and wealth of the local farmers. But by following God's commands, Gideon led a great victory and freed his people from oppression. against all odds victory shows a pattern that is repeated throughout the book of Judges.
