Name of a well beside which Gideon and his army encamped on the morning of the day which ended in the rout of the Midianites (Judges 7:1), and where the test of the people by their mode of drinking apparently took place (ib. 4-8). Harod was situated south of the Hill of Morch (the present Jabal Dahi), where the Midianites were encamped in the valley of Jezreel. It is now called 'Ain Jalud.
