Gideon, who has amassed a large army (32,000), is on the move. Their plan is to attack the Midians and force them out of Israel. It seems like a good plan, certainly backed by God. But there is something Gideon doesn’t know: God doesn’t want to attack Midian will the full brunt of this assembled army. Why? Because such a victory over Midian, with the large army, would be a cause for Israel to say they did it, not God. So God tells Gideon to have anyone with fear leave. The Midian army sits at about 135,000. This alone could cause many of the once strong-willed Israelites to turn away, and 22,00 do so.
