Adalia

Male · 1 cross reference

Adalia is one of Haman's sons named among those killed when the Jews are delivered in Esther. He belongs to the doomed household of the book's chief enemy. First appears in Esth 9:8.1

AI summary: Adalia matters because his single cross reference places him among the sons of Haman, showing that the reversal in Esther extends beyond Haman himself to the collapse of his house. The entry helps give concrete shape to the final overturning of the plot against the Jews. Taken together, the material presents Adalia as part of the defeated lineage of the book's central antagonist.1
