V. 32.— And what shall I more say, for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets. Although the Apostle had adduced a sufficient number of examples, he had not exhausted the subject, but here names several others whose faith was conspicuous: Gideon, who by faith triumphed over the Midianites, Judges 7 :; Barak, who overcame the army of Jabin, Judges 4:6. Samson, whose faith appears not only from his mighty actions, but from acknowledging the Lord as the author of his success, and calling upon him when ready to perish with thirst, Judges 15:18; Jephthah, whose faith was manifest by his message to the King of the Ammonites, stating that God had given to Israel all the lands to which the Ammonites laid claim, and at the same time appealing to God for the justice of his claim. Judges 11:12-27. It is unnecessary to particularize instances of the faith of David, of Samuel, and of the prophets.
