Padan-aram, Paddan-aram, Padan, or Paddan, in the Hebrew Bible, refers to the plain or field of Aram-Naharaim, or the plain of the highlands, that part of Aram that lay in the Euphrates River valley. The name thus may correspond to the Hebrew “sedeh Aram,” or “field of Aram.” (Rashi to Gen. 25:20; e.g., Hos. 12:13.)
