Jehozadak
Jehozadak
(Heb. Yehotsadak’, , Jehovah justified; Sept. ; Auth. Vers. Josedech in Haggai and Zechariah), also in the contracted form JOZADAK (, Yotsadak’, in Ezra and Nehemiah; Sept. ), the son of the high priest Seraiah at the time of the Babylonian captivity (1Ch 6:14-15). Although he succeeded to the high priesthood after the slaughter of his father at Riblah (2Ki 25:18-21), he had no opportunity of performing the functions of his office (Selden, De success. in Pont. in Opp. 2, 104). He was carried into captivity by Neduchadnezzar (1Ch 6:15), and evidently died in exile, as, on the return from the captivity, his son Joshua was the first high priest who officiated (Hag 1:1; Hag 1:12; Hag 1:14; Hag 2:2; Hag 2:4; Zec 6:11; Ezr 3:2; Ezr 3:8; Ezr 5:2; Ezr 10:18; Neh 12:26). B.C. 588. SEE HIGH PRIEST.

Jehozadak
Jehovah-justified, the son of the high priest Seraiah at the time of the Babylonian exile (1 Chr. 6:14, 15). He was carried into captivity by Nebuchadnezzar, and probably died in Babylon. He was the father of Jeshua, or Joshua, who returned with Zerubbabel.

Jehozadak
Led captive to Babylon after Seraiah his father’s execution at Riblab (1Ch 6:14-15; 2Ki 25:18; 2Ki 25:21). Father of Jeshua the high priest, who with Zerubbabel led the returning Jews from Babylon (Ezr 3:2; Neh 12:26). Zedekiah(“righteous is Jehovah”); Jehozadak (“Jehovah is righteous”.) It is suggestive that the names of the last king and of the representative of the high priesthood in the captivity both express that the suspension of the throne and of the priesthood was Jehovah’s righteous judgment for Judah’s sins; moreover Joshua or Jeshua, who restored the temple altar, expresses salvation; as the former Joshua led the hitherto homeless Israelites into Canaan their inheritance; and as Jesus, the Antitype, saves us from our sins and leads us into the heavenly rest. (See JOSHUA; JESHUA.)
