'Test' in the Bible

I did this to test Israel and to see whether they would keep the Lord’s way by walking in it, as their fathers had.”

These are the nations the Lord left in order to test Israel, since the Israelites had fought none of these in any of the wars with Canaan.

The Lord left them to test Israel, to determine if they would keep the Lord’s commands He had given their fathers through Moses.

Gideon then said to God, “Don’t be angry with me; let me speak one more time. Please allow me to make one more test with the fleece. Let it remain dry, and the dew be all over the ground.”

Then the Lord said to Gideon, “There are still too many people. Take them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. If I say to you, ‘This one can go with you,’ he can go. But if I say about anyone, ‘This one cannot go with you,’ he cannot go.”
