Please let me make a trial just this once with the fleece. Let it now be dry only on the fleece, and on all the ground let there be dew.”God did so that night; for it was dry on the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.

He put the meat in a basket and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to him under the oak, and presented it.The angel of God said to him,“ Take the meat and the unleavened cakes, and lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth.” He did so.Then Yahweh’s angel stretched out the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the meat and the unleavened cakes; and fire went up out of the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened cakes. Then Yahweh’s angel departed out of his sight.Gideon saw that he was Yahweh’s angel; and Gideon said,“ Alas, Lord Yahweh! Because I have seen Yahweh’s angel face to face!”Yahweh said to him,“ Peace be to you! Don’t be afraid. You shall not die.”Then Gideon built an altar there to Yahweh, and called it“ Yahweh is Peace.” To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
