This Zadok entry refers to the father of Jerushah and maternal grandfather line behind King Jotham, not to the famous priest in David's time. He belongs to the royal family setting of Judah's monarchy. First appears in 2 Kgs 15:33.1
AI summary: This Zadok matters because his cross references place his household in the maternal line of a Judean king, showing how royal history is also carried through remembered family connections beyond the throne itself. Though he is not the high priest most readers think of, his name still belongs to the dynastic fabric of Judah. Taken together, the material presents this Zadok as a familial source within the royal household of Jotham.1
