“Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.”
Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the troops that were with him rose early and encamped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was north of them, by the Hill of Moreh, in the valley. — The opening of chapter 7 initiates the Gideon battle narrative. The geographical details—'spring of Harod,' 'Hill of Moreh,' valley positioning—indicate a recognized battlefield location. Gideon's forces are positioned south of the Midianites, suggesting defensive positioning.
