Theological / Devotional

After Ahithophel. After the defection of Ahithophel he was succeeded by Jehoiada and Abiathar.

Jehoiada. This was probably the Jehoiada who is designated as a “priest” (v. 5). Jehoiada’s son, Benaiah, had the same name as his grandfather.

Abiathar. Abiathar was one of the high priests (see 1 Chron. 18:16; 2 Sam. 20:25).
