Judges7:2
2 And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.
i. e. For my purpose; which is, so to deliver Israel, that it may appear to be my own miraculous act, that so I may have all the Glory of it, and they may be more strongly obliged to love and serve me.
