Chaderakhe
of Hadrach
Proper name designating a place, region, or possibly a deity referenced in a prophetic context. In biblical usage, Hadrach refers to a geographic region or polity, likely located in northern Syria, that was subject to or associated with the influence of Damascus in the time of the Hebrew prophets. The specific semantic reference is to a place name, rather than a personal or divine name, although the association with a deity has been suggested in some traditions.
