HARROW*

Agricultural term for implement or procedure, though no implement corresponding to the modern harrow is known from Palestine or Egypt. Job 39:10 speaks of an ox performing the harrowing, while Isaiah 28:24 notes that plowed ground was leveled as part of the process. Like the foregoing references, Hosea 10:11 speaks of harrowing in connection with plowing. Most probably harrowing consisted of branches being pulled behind an animal or plow to smooth the land and before seeding. See Agriculture.
