The following is the results of your search for Adjuration.
Adjuration: A solemn appeal whereby one person imposes on another the obligation
of speaking or acting as if under an oath
(1 Samuel 14:24; Joshua 6:26)
(1 Kings 22:16) We have in the New Testament a striking example of this
(Matthew 26:63; Mark 5:7) where the high priest calls upon Christ to avow
his true character. It would seem that in such a case the person so
adjured could not refuse to give an answer. The word "adjure", i.e.,
cause to swear is used with reference to the casting out of demons
(Acts 19:13)
