NEVI’IM Judges 7
The Lord said to Gideon, “you have too many troops with you for Me to deliver Midian into their hands; Israel might claim for themselves the glory due to Me, thinking ‘Our own hand has brought us victory.” Therefore, announce to the men, ‘Let anybody who is timid and fearful turn back, as a bird flies from Mount Gilead’” Thereupon, 22,000 troops turned back and 10,000 remained.
“There are still too many troops,” the Lord said to Gideon. “Take them down to the water and I will sift them for you there.
Then the Lord said to Gideon, “Set apart all those who lap up the water with heir tongues like dogs from all those who get down on their knees to drink.” Now those who “lapped” the water into their mouths by hand numbered three hundred; all the rest of the troops got down on their knees to drink. Then the Lord said to Gideon, “I will deliver you and I will put Midian into your hands through the three hundred ‘lappers’; let the rest of the troops go home.

Miguel de Clerck
Professionally, my work at Medecins sans Frontiers (Doctors Without Borders) has always included the imperative to evaluate my jobs through the criteria of the mobilized, or the served population; the omnipresence of ethical dilemmas; and the often completely unfamiliar environment in which I work. It has opened my eyes to the mechanisms that lead to either major societal changes, or the absence of change.
