Orthodox icon of Prophet Gideon, Προφήτης Γεδεών.

NOTE: the sizes of the icon are approximate, because of its shape.

Judge of Israel, whose memory is honored by our  Church on September 26. On this day, those who bear the name Gideon celebrate.

Gideon was from the city of Ephrathah in the tribe of Manasseh. He was also called Jerubbaal (= Baal will judge), because he destroyed an altar of Baal and built an altar to Yahweh in its place.

Gideon's calling by God is connected with the raids of the Midianites, who terrorized the Israelite people. Gideon managed to unite the tribes of Manasseh, Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, and after receiving God's assurance of victory, he launched a surprise attack with 300 men against the Midianite camp, put them to flight, and drove them beyond the Jordan River. The two kings of the Midianites, who had killed Gideon's brothers, were captured and executed.

After the successful outcome of the war, the Israelites asked Gideon to remain their ruler for life, but he refused, saying, "The Lord shall be your ruler." He died at an advanced age and was buried in his hometown. The life and deeds of Gideon are recounted in detail in the Book of Judges (chapters 6, 7, and 8) of the Old Testament.

Gideon is known in the orthodox ecclesiastical hymnography from the miracle of "the dew in the basket" (Judges 6:37-38), where, in order to be convinced of God's intentions to help his people, he asked him to cool a fleece (a ball of raw wool) that he placed on a threshing floor, while at the same time there would be drought around it. God performed the miracle, Gideon was convinced, and he led the Israelites against the Midianites. In ecclesiastical hymnography, the Virgin Mary is likened to the fleece and Jesus to the dew.

Westie LOVES this toy
Color: U.S.A, Size: Medium
My pup (Westie) adores this toy. This is actually our second one. The ball itself is resistant but the straps will be obliterated. Would definitely recommend! Totally worth the price!

Not durable
Color: Black/White, Size: Large
If you have a dog who likes to pop things then this toy isn't it. Within 5 min she had this ball popped. It was made to sound like it was durable for this type of thing but it definitely is not so just be aware. Now if you have a dog who doesn't pop things easy then this would be a good toy

WHAT I LEARNED
Color: U.S.A, Size: Medium
i AM NOT SURE THAT 4 STARS IS A FAIR SCORE, MY DOG IS AN AGGRESSIVE CHEWER, NEEDLESS TO SAY WITHIN 2 DAYS ALL THE TABS WERE OFF, BUT THERE WERE NUBS LEFT AND SHE CAN USE THAT. HERE IS A WHAT NOT TO DO, BRING IT TO THE DOG PARK, THEY ALL HAVE A BLAST BUT IF YOUR A BULLY/PIT MIX AND DECIDE TO SINK THEIR TEETH INTO IT, IT DOES DEFLAT. LESSONS LEARNED STILL A FUN TOY.
