Adoni-zedek
Adoni-zedek, the king of Jerusalem, formed an alliance with other Amorite kings to fight against Joshua and the Israelites but was defeated and killed.
Adoni-zedek was the king of Jerusalem at the time of Joshua's conquest of Canaan, who organized a coalition of five Amorite kings to punish Gibeon for making peace with Israel (Joshua 10:1–5). Joshua came to Gibeon's defense, and God threw the coalition into confusion, hurling large hailstones and—most famously—causing the sun and moon to stand still at Joshua's command (Joshua 10:12–14). Adoni-zedek and his four allies were captured hiding in a cave at Makkedah and were executed. His defeat marked the beginning of the conquest of southern Canaan and opened the way for Israel's control of the central highlands.
