Metaphysical meaning of Adalia (mbd)

Adalia, a-da'-li-a (Heb. fr. Pers.)--a sun god; fire god.

One of the sons of Haman (Esth. 9:8,10). Haman and his sons were put to death because of having sought to destroy the Jews.

Meta. The adverse belief that heat, warmth, and life are produced and kept in expression in man by the activities of his animal nature--passions and appetites. It was from Shushan, the palace (meaning lily and symbolizing pure thought unadulterated by error belief), that the command was issued for the destruction of the sons of Haman, the Jews' enemy. (See ARIDAI, another of Haman's sons.)
