One day, the Midianites

                                                          gathered a very strong army.
                                                        Gideon asked God to confirm

                                                       to him that He will be with him
                                               to save the people of Israel and to go

                                             fight the Midianites. He asked God to
                                             give him another

                                             sign!

          Vico: Again?!


          Pino: Yes, Sir. Gideon told God that he

          will put a fleece on the threshing floor.
          if there is dew on the fleece only, and it

           is dry on all the ground, then Gideon will
           confirm that true that God spoke to him.

           Then Gideon asked God to do the oppo- site. That the fleece would
           be dry and the whole land around it to be wet with dew.


                                            Vico: Did God do what Gideon had
                                             asked?


                                             Pino: Yes, God did so that very same

                                              night. Then Gideon started to get ready
                                              to fight the Midianites. The Midianites

                                               had a large army 135 thousand men.
