Judges 7:13

OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and struck it so that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay flat.

Verse 12 Read Chapter 7 Verse 14

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

A dream. Observation of dreams is commonly superstitious, and as such is condemned by the word of God; but in some extraordinary cases, as we here see, God is pleased by dreams to foretel what he is about to do. (Challoner) See Genesis xl., Leviticus xix. 26., and Deuteronomy xviii. 10. (Worthington) The small company of Gedeon stood in need of every sort of encouragement. (Haydock)
