(zoh' huh lehth) Place name meaning, “creeping one,” “sliding,” or “serpent stone.” Stone of sacrifice where Adonijah offered sacrifices in light of his coming coronation as king (1 Kings 1:9 ). This place was near En-rogel, a spring or well near Jerusalem where the Kidron Valley and the Valley of Hinnom meet. Adonijah's bid for the throne was short lived. David named Solomon to follow him on the throne (1 Kings 1:29-30 ).
