Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root צָדַק (tsadaq), meaning "to be just" or "to be righteous."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry for Tsadok is Strong's G4524: Σαδώκ (Sadok). This name appears in the genealogies of Jesus Christ in the New Testament, specifically in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 1:14), where Sadok is listed as an ancestor of Jesus, highlighting the continuity of the priestly and royal lineage.

Usage: The name Tsadok appears in the Hebrew Bible as a significant priestly figure, particularly during the reigns of King David and King Solomon. He is noted for his loyalty and service in the priesthood.

Context: Tsadok is a prominent biblical figure, recognized as a priest during the time of King David and King Solomon. He is first mentioned in 2 Samuel 8:17, where he is identified as the son of Ahitub and a descendant of Aaron, the brother of Moses. Tsadok, along with Abiathar, served as a priest during King David's reign. He played a crucial role during Absalom's rebellion, remaining loyal to David and helping to ensure the king's safe return to Jerusalem (2 Samuel 15:24-29).

Tsadok's loyalty and righteousness were further demonstrated during the transition of power from David to Solomon. When Adonijah, another of David's sons, attempted to usurp the throne, Tsadok supported Solomon, anointing him as king at David's command (1 Kings 1:32-39). As a result of his faithfulness, Tsadok was appointed as the chief priest, a position he held during Solomon's reign (1 Kings 2:35).

The "sons of Tsadok" are later mentioned in the book of Ezekiel as a priestly line that remained faithful to God, distinguishing themselves from other Levites who went astray (Ezekiel 44:15). This lineage is often associated with the ideal of priestly righteousness and fidelity to divine commandments.
