Hadoram
(Heb. Hadoramn’, , defectively in Chronicles’Furst suggests [Heb. Lex. s.v.]= , Haudor [i.e. Ador, the fire-god; SEE HADRAMMELECH ] is exalted; the Samuel at Gen 10:27 has Adoram; Sept. in Gen 10:27, , Vulg. Aduram; in 1Ch 1:21, ; in 1Ch 18:10, .; in 2Ch 10:18, ; Vulg. in all these last, Adoram), the name of three men
1. ADORAM, the fifth son of Joktan, and progenitor of a tribe of the same name in Arabia Felix (Gen 10:27; 1Ch 1:21). B.C. post 2414. Bochart (Phaleg, 2, 20) compares the Dirmati or Drimnati on the Persian Gulf (Plin. 6:32), and the promontory (Ras el-Had) of Ptol. 6:7, 11. Michaelis (Spiciley. 2, 162) despairs of all identification of the tribe in question. Schulthess (Parad. p. 83) and Gesenius (Thes. Heb. s. 4.) think that the Adramitae are meant, whom Ptolemy (, Geog. 6, 7) places on the southern shores of Arabia, between the Homeritae (Hamyarites) and the Sochalite, an account with which Pliny (Atramitoe, Hist. Nat. 6, 28, 32; 12:14,30) substantially agrees. Winer, 1, 453. Fresnel cites an Arab author who identifies Hadoram with Jurhum (41’Lettre, Journ. Asiatique, 3 serie, 6:220); but this is highly improbable; nor is the suggestion of Hadhira, by Caussin (Essai i, 30), more likely, the latter being one of the aboriginal tribes of Arabia, such as Ad, Thamd, etc. SEE ARABIA.
2. HADORAM, son of Toi, king of Hamath, sent by his father (with valuable presents in the form of articles of antique manufacture [Josephus], in gold, silver, and brass) to congratulate David on his victory over their common enemy Hadarezer, king of Syria (1Ch 18:10). B.C. cir. 1034. In the parallel narrative of 2 Samuel 8, the name is given as JORAM; but this being a contraction of Jehoram, which contains the name of Jehovah, is peculiarly an Israelitish appellation. By Josephus (Ant. 7, 5,4) he is called .
3. ADONIRAM SEE ADONIRAM (q.v.), as he is elsewhere more fully called (1Ki 4:6; 1 Kings 5, 14; Josephus constantly ) the son of Abda, the treasurer of taxes under Solomon, and who was stoned to death by the people of the northern tribes when sent by Rehoboam to exact the usual dues (2Ch 10:18).

Hadoram
is exalted. (1.) The son of Tou, king of Hamath, sent by his father to congratulate David on his victory over Hadarezer, king of Syria (1 Chr. 18:10; called Joram 2 Sam. 8:10).
(2.) The fifth son of Joktan, the founder of an Arab tribe (Gen. 10:27; 1 Chr. 1:21).
(3.) One who was “over the tribute;” i.e., “over the levy.” He was stoned by the Israelites after they had revolted from Rehoboam (2 Chr. 10:18). Called also Adoram (2 Sam. 20:24) and Adoniram (1 Kings 4:6).

Hadoram
1. Son of Tou or Toi, king of Hamath; sent to congratulate David on his victory over Hadarezer (1Ch 28:10), bearing costly presents in gold, silver, and brass (antiques according to Josephus). More likely to be the true name than “Jeram,” which contains the name of Jehovah (2Sa 8:10).
2. The contracted form of Adoniram (2Sa 20:24; 1Ki 4:6; 1Ki 12:18). Over the tribute, under David, Solomon, and Rehoboam. Stoned to death when sent as one of the old or moderate party, to appease the sedition; the choice of the superintendent of taxes for the purpose was consistent with the general lack of tact in Rehoboam.

Hadoram
HADORAM.1. The fifth son of Joktan (Gen 10:27, 1Ch 1:21). 2. The son of Tou, king of Hamath (1Ch 18:10). In the parallel passage, 2Sa 8:9 f., Hadoram wrongly appears as Joram. 3. 2Ch 10:18. The parallel passage, 1Ki 12:18, has preserved the more correct form Adoram.

Hadoram
ha-doram (, hadhoram):
(1) Son of Joktan and apparently 6th in descent from Noah (Gen 10:27 parallel 1Ch 1:21).
(2) Son of Tou, king of Hamath, sent by his father with presents to King David (1Ch 18:10). In 2Sa 8:9, 2Sa 8:10, written probably incorrectly Joram, son of Toi.
(3) Rehoboam’s superintendent of the forced labor department (2Ch 10:18), called Adoram 1Ki 12:18, a contraction of ADONIRAM (which see). He was sent by Rehoboam as messenger to Israel at the time of the revolt of the ten tribes and was stoned to death by them.
