Zadok – Sons of Zadok
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zadok (or Zadok HaKohen, also spelled Ṣadok, Ṣadoc,
[1] Zadoq, Tzadok, or Tsadoq; Hebrew: צָדוֹק הַכֹּהֵן, meaning “Righteous, Justified”) was a Kohen (priest), biblically recorded to be a descendant from Eleazar the son of Aaron (1 Chron 6:4–8).
[2] He was the High Priest of Israel during the reigns of David and Solomon (2 Samuel 8:16–18). He aided King David during the revolt of his son Absalom, was subsequently instrumental in bringing Solomon to the throne and officiated at Solomon’s coronation. After Solomon’s building of the First Temple in Jerusalem, Zadok was the first High Priest to serve there (1 Kings 2:35).
The prophet Ezekiel extols in the book attributed to him the sons of Zadok as staunch opponents of paganism during the era of pagan worship and indicates their birthright to unique duties and privileges in the future temple (Ezekiel 44:15, 43:19)
