Gideon, son of Joash, is a biblical figure who lived during the period of the Judges in ancient Israel, which is typically dated to around the 12th century BCE. His story is primarily recounted in the Book of Judges, chapters 6 to 8, where he is known for leading the Israelites to victory against the Midianites. The exact dates of his life are not specified, but it is believed to be around 1200 to 1100 BCE.
Gideon had 70 sons, as recorded in the Book of Judges in the Bible. He had many wives, and additionally, he had a concubine who bore him a son named Abimelech, bringing the total to 71 children. Gideon's large number of offspring reflects both his status and the customs of the time.

A:Jerubbaal was also known in the Bible as Gideon, but scholars believe that Jerubbaal was his real name. The online JewishBible suggests that Joash named his son at birth Jerubaal and not Gideon. In Judges chapters 6-8, God called Gideon at a time when the Midianites were oppressively ruling over Israel. He led an uprising against the Midianites with a very small force of men. The author of Judges, a staunch, unswerving devotee of Yahweh as the God of Israel, could not write the story of the hero who had been chosen to drive out the Midianite menace, when his name was associated with Baal. Hence, he devised the name Gideon to use only in telling this story and nowhere else in the Bible. Elsewhere, his actual name, Jerubbaal, was used.
As he was dying, the prophet Elisha pronounced a curse on King Joash of Israel. This occurred when Joash visited Elisha, lamenting the prophet's impending death and expressing concern over Israel's future. Elisha instructed Joash to strike the ground with arrows, but Joash only struck three times, leading Elisha to declare that Joash would only defeat the Arameans three times, rather than completely. This curse symbolized the limited victories Joash would achieve due to his lack of faith and commitment.
