“And the Lord said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man.”
'The LORD said to him, 'But I will be with you, and you shall strike down the Midianites, one and all.' — The LORD's reassurance 'I will be with you, and you shall strike down the Midianites, one and all' emphasizes that divine presence, rather than human ability, ensures victory. The phrase 'I will be with you' becomes the fundamental condition of Gideon's salvific mission.
