| Though it is not expressly said, as in the case of Gideon Jdg 6:34, Othniel Jdg 3:10, and others, that the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, yet the whole course of the narrative, especially Sa1 14:13-16, indicates an extraordinary divine interposition. |

| A sign - Jonathan not being assured of the success of this exploit, desires a sign; and by the instinct of God's Spirit, pitches upon this. Divers such motions and extraordinary impulses there were among great and good men in ancient times. Observe; God has the governing of the hearts and tongues of all men, even of those that know him not, and serves his own purposes by them, tho' they mean not so, neither does their hearts think so. |

15 And there was trembling [02731] in the host [04264], in the field [07704], and among all the people [05971]: the garrison [04673], and the spoilers [07843], they also trembled [02729], and the earth [0776] quaked [07264]: so it was a very great [0430] trembling [02731].
16 And the watchmen [06822] of Saul [07586] in Gibeah [01390] of Benjamin [01144] looked [07200]; and, behold, the multitude [01995] melted away [04127], and they went [03212] on beating down [01986] one another.
10 And the Spirit [07307] of the LORD [03068] came upon him, and he judged [08199] Israel [03478], and went out [03318] to war [04421]: and the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] Chushanrishathaim [03573] king [04428] of Mesopotamia [0763] into his hand [03027]; and his hand [03027] prevailed [05810] against Chushanrishathaim [03573].
34 But the Spirit [07307] of the LORD [03068] came [03847] upon Gideon [01439], and he blew [08628] a trumpet [07782]; and Abiezer [044] was gathered [02199] after [0310] him.
