Yahweh Sends Gideon to Save Israel

¹¹ Then ^(A)the angel of Yahweh came and sat under the ^[a]oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the ^(B)Abiezrite as his son ^(C)Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to ^[b]preserve it from the Midianites.

⁸ Then Manoah entreated Yahweh and said, “O Lord, please let ^(A)the man of God whom You have sent come to us again that he may instruct us what to do for the boy who is to be born.”

¹⁰ So the woman ran quickly and told her husband, and she said to him, “Behold, ^(A)the man who came the other day to me has appeared to me.” ¹¹ Then Manoah arose and followed his wife, and when he came to the man he said to him, “Are you ^(B)the man who spoke to the woman?” And he said, “I am.”
