THE FORTIE FOVRE SERMON ON THE SIXTH AND SEVENTH CHAPTERS OF THE BOOKE OF IVDGES.
VERS. 36. Then Gideon said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by mine hand as thou hast said. 37. Behold, I put a fleece of wool in the threshing place: if the dew come on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the earth, then shall I be sure that thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said. 38. And so it was: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, and filled a bowl of water. 39. Again, Gideon said unto God, be not angry with me, that I may speak once more: let me prove once again, I pray thee, with the fleece: let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and let dew be upon all the ground. 40. And God did so that same night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
