We can draw encouragement from the account about Gideon, for it proves that Jehovah can deliver his people from any menace, even by using those who appear weak or helpless.
Giideoni lugu pakub ka julgustust, kuna see tõestab, et Jehoova võib vabastada oma rahva mistahes ohust, kasutades selleks isegi näiliselt nõrku ja abituid.
