    Description

    Moreh in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Moreh is the name of two locations mentioned in the Bible. The first is a place near Shechem, where Abraham built an altar to the Lord after arriving in Canaan (Gen.12.6). It is described as being near the great tree (or terebinth) of Moreh, which served as a landmark and possibly a Canaanite sanctuary. The second location is a hill where Gideon camped before attacking the Midianites (Judg 7:1). This hill, also known as the "Little Hermon," is identified with modern-day Jebel ed-Duhy, located north of Mount Gilboa. The spring of Harod, where Gideon selected his 300 men, is believed to be Ain-Jalood, situated at the foot of the hill.
