Jehozadak ('YHWH is righteous'), the exiled priest and father of Joshua the high priest of the return.
A theophoric name meaning 'YHWH is righteous,' belonging to the son of the high priest Seraiah who was executed by Nebuchadnezzar at Riblah (2 Kgs 25:18-21). Jehozadak himself was carried into Babylonian exile (1 Chr 6:15), making him the link between the pre-exilic and post-exilic priesthood. His son Joshua (Jeshua) served as the first high priest of the restored temple. The name appears in the fuller form Yehōtsādāq in Haggai, Zechariah, and Chronicles, and as the shortened Yōtsādāq in Ezra and Nehemiah.

1. Jehozadak (proper name) — Jehozadak (Yehōtsādāq), meaning 'YHWH is righteous,' the proper name of the son of the last pre-exilic high priest Seraiah and the father of Joshua/Jeshua, the first high priest after the Babylonian exile. He appears in the genealogy of 1 Chr 6:14-15 as the priest taken into captivity, and is consistently identified as the father of the high priest Joshua in the post-exilic prophets (Hag 1:1, 12, 14; 2:2, 4; Zech 6:11) and in the restoration narratives (Ezra 3:2, 8; 5:2; 10:18; Neh 12:26). The alternation between the full form (Yehōtsādāq) and shortened form (Yōtsādāq) is reflected in the Septuagint renderings Iosadak/Iosedek. French and German leave the Hebrew untransliterated in several occurrences, while Spanish offers 'Josadac.' 8×
