Adrammelech was one of the sons of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria. After Sennacherib's unsuccessful campaign against Jerusalem, he returned to Nineveh. While worshipping in the temple of his god Nisroch, Adrammelech and his brother Sharezer assassinated their father with the sword. They then escaped to the land of Ararat. Sennacherib's son Esarhaddon succeeded him as king. (2 Kings 19:37;Isaiah 37:38).
