IDDO

1. Father of Ahinadab, Solomon’s official at Mahanaim, who provisioned the royal household (1 Kgs 4:14).

2. Gershonite Levite, descendant of Joah and forefather of Zerah (1 Chr 6:21); perhaps alternately called Adaiah in verse 41. See Adaiah #2.

3. Zechariah’s son and the chief officer of Manasseh’s half-tribe in Gilead during David’s reign (1 Chr 27:21).

4. Prophet and seer who recorded the events of Solomon’s reign concerning Jeroboam, Nebat’s son in a book of visions (2 Chr 9:29), Rehoboam’s acts in his genealogical records (12:15), and Abijah’s life as part of a commentary (13:22).

5. Grandfather of Zechariah the prophet (Zec 1:1, 7). Iddo was a well-known priest who returned to Jerusalem from exile in 538 BC, and whose household was headed by Zechariah during Joiakim’s reign as high priest during the postexilic era (Neh 12:16). According to Ezra 5:1 and 6:14, Zechariah, and not Berechiah his father, was considered Iddo’s successor. See Zechariah (Person) #20.

6. Leading Levite at Casiphia in Babylonia to whom Ezra sent a delegation of men requesting priests and temple servants to join Ezra’s caravan returning to Palestine for service in the Jerusalem temple (Ezr 8:17).
