ADONI-ZEDEK

Amorite king of Jerusalem at the time of the Israelite conquest of the Promised Land (Jos 10:1-5). A battle between the Amorites and Israelites for control of Gibeon was the occasion on which Joshua prayed for the sun to stand still (Jos 10:6-15). The Israelites won a decisive victory. Adoni-zedek and four other enemy kings were discovered hiding in a cave and were executed by Joshua (Jos 10:16-27).
