The symbol used by the Gideons who distribute Bibles in many places throughout the world is the pitcher with a lamp within. It is taken from the account of Gideon in the book of Judges. Gideon won a battle against the Midianites partly because they had lamps concealed in pitchers which were broken at the last minute at the moment of attack. As God had orchestrated the victory the pitcher is a symbol of God's Word being the 'sword of the' Lord' in all its power. Also Gideon was willing to be used by God.
