Old Testament
Armoni
One of two sons born to Saul and Rizpah who was surrendered to the Gibeonites for execution.
Armoni was a son of King Saul and his concubine Rizpah. He is mentioned in 2 Samuel 21:8 as one of the seven descendants of Saul handed over to the Gibeonites to atone for Saul's violation of a treaty. His death serves as a somber conclusion to the consequences of Saul's actions against the Gibeonites.
