Zadok bible verse

1. Zadok, the son of Ahitub, is listed along with Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, and later with another Abiathar, prob. the grandson of the first, as a leading priest (2 Sam 8:17; 20:25). When David fled from Absalom Zadok started to accompany him, taking along the Ark of the Lord, but David ordered him to return to Jerusalem (2 Sam 15:24-29). Zadok always showed unswerving loyalty to David. His son, Ahimaaz, served as a courier in the time of conflict (2 Sam 15:36; 17:17-20; 18:19, 22, 27). At David’s request, after the defeat of Absalom, Zadok and Abiathar induced the elders of Judah to invite David to return to Jerusalem (2 Sam 19:11-14). Zadok and Abiathar served jointly as priests
