Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) son of Joash went back to live at his house.
Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the troops who were with him, got up early and camped beside the spring of Harod. The camp of Midian was north of them, below the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
That day Gideon was called Jerubbaal, since Joash said, ‘Let Baal contend with him,’ because he tore down his altar.
So the Lord sent Jerubbaal, Barak, , Jephthah, and Samuel. He rescued you from the power of the enemies around you, and you lived securely.
So Midian was subdued before the Israelites, and they were no longer a threat. The land had peace for forty years during the days of Gideon.
