אֶל־ 'el- “to”

Then Gideon said to God, If you are going to give Israel salvation by my hand, as you have said,

אֶל־ 'el- “to”

Then Gideon said to God, Do not be moved to wrath against me if I say only this: let me make one more test with the wool; let the wool now be dry, while the earth is covered with dew.

And that night God did so; for the wool was dry, and there was dew on all the earth round it.

And the Lord said to Gideon, So great is the number of your people, that if I give the Midianites into their hands they will be uplifted in pride over me and will say, I myself have been my saviour.

אֶל־ 'el- “to”

Then the Lord said to Gideon, There are still more people than is necessary; take them down to the water so that I may put them to the test for you there; then whoever I say is to go with you will go, and whoever I say is not to go will not go.

Now the number of those who took up the water with their tongues was three hundred; all the rest of the people went down on their knees to the water.

אֶל־ 'el- “to”

And the Lord said to Gideon, By those three hundred who were drinking with their tongues I will give you salvation and give the Midianites into your hands; let the rest of the people go away, every man to his place.

אֶל־ 'el- “to”

The same night the Lord said to him, Up! go down now against their army, for I have given them into your hands.

But if you have fear of going down, take your servant Purah with you and go down to the tents;

אֶל־ 'el- “to”

And he said to them, Keep your eyes on me, and do what I do; when I come to the outer line of tents, whatever I do, you are to do the same.

And he said to them, What have I done in comparison with you? Is not that which Ephraim took up after the grape-cutting better than all the grapes which Abiezer got in from the grape-cutting?
