“And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of flour: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out unto him under the oak, and presented it.”
So Gideon went into his house, and prepared a kid, and unleavened cakes made from an ephah of flour; the meat he put in a basket, and the broth he put in a pot, and brought them out to him under the oak, and presented the food. — The preparation of kid meat (goat), unleavened cakes, and broth represents a substantial offering, suggesting that Gideon recognized the angel's significance through hospitable generosity despite his poverty and desperation.
