The Gleaning of the Grapes of Ephraim is Better than the Vintage of Abi-Ezer
Judges 8:1-3
And the men of Ephraim said to him, Why have you served us thus, that you called us not, when you went to fight with the Midianites?…


In other words, the smallest experience of the joys of God's people — mere vintage-gleanings — is worth far more than the richest world-clusters.

(J. R. Macduff, D. D.)
