Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Jerubbaal: It appears that Jerubbaal had now become the surname of Gideon. He is mentioned by Sanchoniathon, quoted by Eusebius, who lived in the reign of Ithobal, king of Tyre, and consequently a little after the time of Gideon, by the name of Jerombalus, a priest of Jeuo or Jao. Judges 6:32
rose up: Genesis 22:3, Joshua 3:1, Joshua 6:12, Ecclesiastes 9:10
Moreh: Genesis 12:6
Reciprocal: Deuteronomy 11:30 - Gilgal Judges 9:17 - fought 2 Samuel 11:21 - Jerubbesheth
Cross-References
This is the account of Noah and his family. Noah was a righteous man, the only blameless person living on earth at the time, and he walked in close fellowship with God.
When everything was ready, the Lord said to Noah, "Go into the boat with all your family, for among all the people of the earth, I can see that you alone are righteous.
Seven days from now I will make the rains pour down on the earth. And it will rain for forty days and forty nights, until I have wiped from the earth all the living things I have created."
So Noah did everything as the Lord commanded him.
Noah was 600 years old when the flood covered the earth.
He went on board the boat to escape the flood—he and his wife and his sons and their wives.
With them were all the various kinds of animals—those approved for eating and for sacrifice and those that were not—along with all the birds and the small animals that scurry along the ground.
They entered the boat in pairs, male and female, just as God had commanded Noah.
After seven days, the waters of the flood came and covered the earth.
When Noah was 600 years old, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the underground waters erupted from the earth, and the rain fell in mighty torrents from the sky.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon,.... That being the name his father had lately given him, Judges 6:32
and all the people that were with him, rose up early; encouraged by the signs and miracles wrought, by which he was assured of success; he was eager to be about his work, and therefore rose early in the morning, and got his army together, and marched to engage the enemy:
and pitched beside the well of Harod; which he might choose for the refreshment of his army on occasion; or, however, so he was directed in Providence here, where a trial was to be made of them by water: this well, or fountain, seems to be the same with that in 1 Samuel 29:1 it signifies fear and trembling, and might have its name either from the fear and trembling of the 22,000 Israelites, whose hearts were dismayed at the Midianites, and they were ordered to return home; or from the fear and trembling of the Midianites, who were discomfited here; the former seems to be the true reason, see Judges 7:3 so that the Midianites were on the north side of them; which Gideon, no doubt, judged to be an advantageous post to him:
by the hill of Moreh, in the valley; the valley of Jezreel, one of the mountains of Gilboa, as is supposed; the Targum is,
"by the hill which looks to the plain;''
from whence he could have a view of the Midianitish army, and the disposition of it. Some think this hill had its name from the Midianitish archers; but, according to Kimchi and Ben Melech, from there being a watch here to direct the ways, or to give notice to the inhabitants of the valley when an army came against them; though some take it to be a school of some eminent teacher in those days z.
z See Weemse's Christian Synagogue, l. 1. c. 6. sect. 5.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The well of Harod - i. e. of trembling, evidently so called from the people who were afraid Judges 7:3. It is identified with great probability with Ain Jalud, a spacious pool at the foot of Gilboa; (by Conder, with Ain el Jem’ain (the spring of the two troops)).
Moreh was, probably, the little Hermon, the Jebel ed-Duhy of the Arabs, which encloses the plain two or three miles north of Gilboa, which shuts it in on the south.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VII
The Lord commands Gideon to make a selection of a small number
of his men to go against the Midianites. Three hundred only
are selected; and into the hands of these God promises to
deliver the whole Midianitish host, 1-8.
Gideon is directed to go down unto the host in the night, that
he may be encouraged on hearing what they say, 9-12.
He obeys, and hears a Midianite tell a remarkable dream unto his
fellow, which predicted the success of his attack, 13-15.
He takes encouragement, divides his men into three companies,
and gives each a trumpet with a lighted lamp concealed in a
pitcher, with directions how to use them, 16-18.
They come to the Midianitish camp at night, when all suddenly
blowing their trumpets and exposing their lamps, the
Midianites are thrown into confusion, fly, and are stopped by
the Ephraimites at the passage of Jordan, and slain, 19-24.
Oreb and Zeeb, two Midianitish princes, are slain, 25.
NOTES ON CHAP. VII
Verse Judges 7:1. Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon — It appears that Jerubbaal was now a surname of Gideon, from the circumstance mentioned Judges 6:32. See Judges 8:35.
The well of Harod — If this was a town or village, it is nowhere else mentioned. Probably, as חרד charad signifies to shake or tremble through fear, the fountain in question may have had its name from the terror and panic with which the Midianitish host was seized at this place.
