James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Adoniram, Adoram


Subjects in this Topic:

ADONIRAM, ADORAM.—The latter name occurs 2Sa_20:24, 1Ki_12:18, and is probably a corruption of Adoniram. Adoniram superintended the levies employed in the public works during the reigns of David, Solomon, and Rehoboam. He was stoned to death by the rebellious Israelites when sent to them by Rehoboam (1Ki_12:18).
