Sounds Like: ah-doh-REE-em
Translations: Adoram, Adoniram
From the root: ΑΔΩΡΗΕΜ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: This word refers to Adoram, also known as Adoniram, a significant figure in the Old Testament. He served as the chief tax collector or superintendent of forced labor under King David, King Solomon, and King Rehoboam. The final apostrophe (keraia) indicates that this is a numerical value, but in this context, it is a proper noun, and the keraia is likely a scribal mark or a misinterpretation of a final nu or mu, or it could be a coronis indicating an elision, though less likely for a proper noun. Given the context, it refers to the person Adoram/Adoniram.
