[Facts] Re: How do you pronounce Adoniram?
in reply to a message by Juls
In the King James Bible the accents are marked a-don-i'-ram (1 Kings 4:6, 5:16); and a Bible dictionary gives the pronounciation, if I'm any judge, as "ah doh NEE raym", with a very very short ah at the beginning. What does your Bible dictionary say? (Personally I'd have said "ah doh NYE ram" at first, but there you go)The spider takes hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces.
