Where did the name Gideon originate?

A:Gideon is a Biblical name meaning 'one who cuts down' in Hebrew. It was borne as a personal name by an Israelite leader, Jerubbaal, appointed to deliver his people from the Midianites (Judges 6:14). The author of Judges, a devotee of Yahweh as the God of Israel, would not write the story of the hero who had been chosen to drive out the Midianite menace when his name, which means 'may Baal contend', says that he was a follower of Baal. Hence, the author devised the name Gideon, whcih clearly refers to him cutting down the grove of asherahs, to use only in telling this story and nowhere else in the Bible. Elsewhere, his actual name, Jerubbaal, was used.

Can women become gideons?

According to the book the Gideons distribute, there is no longer bond or slave, Jew or Greek, male or female, we are 'all one' in Christ Jesus. As Gideons simply distribute God's Word freely, there can be no reason for this function to be restricted by a person's gender, so far that reason, and on account of the urgency to share the Gospel by means of Scripture distribution, women can join the Gideons in many places, including the UK, Sweden and Canada. Some other countries sadly still discriminate, but this is now beginning to change
