Gideon: Shadow of Armageddon


Judges 7:2 in Hebrew:
Jehovah 'amar'. gid'own

Coalition of 3 came against Israel:
Midian
Amalekites
Children of the East
In Revelation there is a confederation of 3 against God's people:
Dragon
Beast
False Prophet

Judges 6:2 has Israel hiding in caves & mountains
Matthew 24:16 has Christ predicting His people will do this when Jerusalem falls
Isaiah 26:20 predicts God's people will do this

Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east were gathered together, and went over, and pitched in the valley of Jezreel.
Judges 6:33
Jezreel is Har-Magedon (Armageddon) a symbol for the last battle in this Great Controversy

God hath delivered into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb:
Oreb & Zeeb: a Type for ??- And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Revelation 19:10
