Judges 7:19-22
7:21 a The warriors stood in place while God fought the battle (cp. Exod 14:13 b; 1 Sam 12:16 c; Rev 19:11-16 d).• The Midianites’ camels (Judg 6:5 e) might have contributed to the panic. Camels usually provided a military advantage, but in this situation they would have been a liability. They had probably been hobbled for the night, and camels themselves are subject to panic.
7:22 f The fugitives fled in a southeasterly direction, past Beth-shan and toward the fords of the Jordan, trying to reach more friendly and favorable surroundings.
