<< Judges 7:13 Judges 7:15 >>
Judges 7:14
This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon - The word rendered tumbled in Judges 7:13, is rather descriptive of a sword brandished (compare Genesis 3:24). Hence, the interpretation "the sword of Gideon." Hearing this dream and the interpretation would convince Gideon that he was indeed under the guidance of God, and so assure him of God' s aid; and secondly, it would show him that a panic had already fallen npon the mind of the enemy.
