In the biblical context, it is often associated with the account of Gideon, where the fleece is used as a sign from God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, sheep were a vital part of the agrarian economy, providing wool, meat, and milk. The shearing of sheep was a significant event, marking a time of harvest for wool. Fleece, therefore, was not only a practical commodity but also held symbolic meaning, often representing provision and blessing.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
