Adora'im. (double mound). A fortified city built by Rehoboam, 2Ch_11:9, in Judah. Adoraim is probably the same place with Adora, 1Ma_13:20, unless that be Dor, on the seacoast below Carmel. Robinson identifies it with Dura, a "large village" on a rising ground west of Hebron.

ad-o-rā?im (אדורים, 'ădhōrayim, ?a pair of knolls,? perhaps): One of several cities in Judah that were fortified by Rehoboam (2Ch_11:9). The name appears in Josephus and in 1 Macc as Adora or Dora or Dor. Its location is indicated in general by that of the other cities which the record in Chronicles groups with it. Common consent identifies it with Dura, about five miles West by South of Hebron.

Adora?im, a town in the south of Judah, enumerated along with Hebron and Mareshah, as one of the cities fortified by Rehoboam (2Ch_11:9). This town does not occur in any writer after Josephus, until the recent researches of Dr. Robinson, who discovered it under the name of Dura, the first feeble letter having been dropped. It is situated five miles W. by S. from Hebron, and is a large village, seated on the eastern slope of a cultivated hill, with olive-groves and fields of grain all around. There are no ruins.

Adoraim
(Heb. Adorayim, אֲוֹרִיַם, two mounds or dwellings; Sept. Α᾿δωραϊvμ v. r. Α᾿δωραί), a town, doubtless in the south-west of Judah, since it is enumerated along with Hebron and Mareshah as one of the cities fortified by Rehoboam (2Ch_11:9). Under the name of Adora it is apparently mentioned in the Apocrypha (ςΑδωρα, 1Ma_13:20), and also often by Josephus (ςΑδωρα or Δῶρα, Ant. 8:10, 1; 13:6, 5; 15, 4; War, 1, 2, 6; 8, 4), who usually connects it with Maressa, as cities of the later Idumaea (see Reland, Paloest. p. 547). It was captured by Hyrcanus at the same time with Maressa, and rebuilt by Gabinius (Joseph. Ant. 13, 9, 1; 14:5, 3). Dr. Robinson discovered the site under the name of Dura, a large village without ruins, five miles W. by S. from Hebron, on the eastern slope of a cultivated hill, with olive-groves and fields of grain all around (Researches, 3, 2-5; comp. Schwarz, Palest. p. 113).
