Zebadiah

Meaning: portion of the Lord; the Lord is my portion · Male · 1 cross reference

This Zebadiah entry refers to a Korhite gatekeeper in 1 Chronicles 26:2, not to the rulers, teachers, returnees, or warriors of the same name elsewhere. He belongs to the sanctuary's ordered service structure. First appears in 1 Chr 26:2.1

AI summary: This Zebadiah matters because his single cross reference places him inside the practical organization of temple access and guarding. The entry helps show that worship life depended on disciplined, named service roles as well as priests and musicians. Taken together, the material presents this Zebadiah as a figure in the gatekeeping order.1
