Hado'ram. (noble honor).

1. The fifth son of Joktan. Genesis 10:27; 1 Chronicles 1:21. His settlements, unlike those of many of Joktan's sons, have not been identified.

2. Son of Tou or Toi, king of Hamath; his father's ambassador to congratulate David, on his victory over Hadarezer, king of Zobah. 1 Chronicles 18:10. (B.C. 1035).

3. The form assumed in Chronicles, by the name of the intendant of taxes under David, Solomon and Rehoboam. 2 Chronicles 10:18. In Kings, the name is given in the longer form of Adoniram, but in Samuel, 2 Samuel 20:24, as Adoram.
