HAROD
1. Spring beside which Gideon and his army camped before their encounter with the Midianites (Jgs 7:1). Perhaps this is the same spring by which Saul and his army pitched their tents prior to their battle with the Philistines (1 Sm 29:1). The spring of Harod is at ‘Ain Jalud by the northern side of Mt Gilboa, about two miles (3.2 kilometers) southeast of Zerin.
2. Home of Shammah and Elika, two of David’s valiant warriors (2 Sm 23:25). In the parallel passage (1 Chr 11:27), Elika’s name is omitted and Shammah (Shammoth) is listed as a Harorite instead of a Harodite. “Harorite” reflects a later scribal error where the copyist mistook the Hebrew letter “d” for an “r.”
