Vers. 17. And he answered him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thy sight, then show me a sign that thou talkest with me. Vers. 18. Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee and bring mine offering, and lay it before thee: and he said, I will tarry until thou come again. Vers. 19. Then Gideon went in, and made ready a Kid, and unleavened bread of an Ephah of flower, and put the flesh in a basket, and put the broth in a pot, and brought it out unto him under the oak, and presented it. Vers. 20. And the Angel of the Lord said unto him, Take the flesh and the ⟨p. 310⟩unleavened bread, and lay them upon this stone, and pour out the broth, and he did so. Vers. 21. Then the Angel of the Lord put forth the end of the staff that he held in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened bread, and there arose fire out of the stone, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened bread; so the Angel of the Lord departed out of his sight. Vers. 22. And when Gideon perceived that it was the Angel of the Lord, Gideon then said; Alas my Lord God, for because I have seen an Angel of the Lord face to face, I shall dye. Vers. 23.

Then Gideon made an Alter there unto the Lord, and called it Jehovahshalem: unto this day it is in Ophrah of the father of the Ezrites.
