Ahitub begat Zadok. The exact period when these men held priestly office is not known. It was probably about the time when Jehoiada, who made Joash king (2 Chron. 23), lived. The fact that Jehoiada is not cited in the present genealogy is evidence that the names of all priests do not appear in this present list. About a century later there was another priest, presumably a high priest, whose name does not appear in the present listing, Urijah of the time of Ahaz (2 Kings 16:10-16).

It was told. The experience that came to Obed-edom demonstrated that although God is a holy God, He need not be dreaded by one who is humble and obedient. The nation had been watching to see what would come upon the Gittite and his family (PP 706). The blessing that came dispelled the gloom and foreboding that the death of Uzzah had produced.
