Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the Hebrew name Achitub in the Strong's Greek Concordance, as it is a proper noun specific to Hebrew genealogies and priestly records. However, the name may appear transliterated in Greek texts of the Septuagint or other historical writings. Usage: Achitub is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of several individuals, primarily associated with the priestly lineage. Context: • Achitub, the Son of Phinehas: Achitub is mentioned as the son of Phinehas and the grandson of Eli, the high priest. He is part of the priestly lineage that served in the tabernacle and later in the temple. His role is significant in the continuation of the priestly line after the tragic events involving his father and grandfather (1 Samuel 14:3). • Achitub, the Father of Ahimelech: Another Achitub is noted as the father of Ahimelech, who served as a priest during the reign of King Saul. Ahimelech provided assistance to David when he was fleeing from Saul, an act that led to his death at the hands of Doeg the Edomite, as ordered by Saul (1 Samuel 22:9-12). • Achitub, the Ancestor of Zadok: Achitub is also listed as an ancestor of Zadok, the high priest during the reigns of David and Solomon. This lineage is crucial as it establishes the priestly line that served in the First Temple (1 Chronicles 6:8, 12). • Achitub, the Father of Abiathar: In some genealogical records, Achitub is mentioned as the father of Abiathar, another priest who served during the time of David. Abiathar was one of the two chief priests during David's reign, alongside Zadok (2 Samuel 8:17).
