Joshua (son of Jehozadak)
여호수아 (여호사닥의 아들)
Named at Haggai 1:1 as the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. 1:1–2 says that in the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, “to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest”. 1:12–14 says that Zerubbabel, Joshua, and all the remnant of the people obeyed the LORD their God’s voice, and the words of Haggai the prophet, and that the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel, the spirit of Joshua, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people, and they came and worked on the house of the LORD of Armies, their God. 2:1–4 gives, in the LORD’s word that came by Haggai the prophet in the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, “Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people” and “Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.” Zechariah 3:1–5 tells what the speaker (“I”) is shown. 3:1 says, “He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the LORD’s angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary”, and 3:3–4, “Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel. He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, ‘Take the filthy garments off him.’ To him he said, ‘Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.’” At 3:5 the speaker says, “Let them set a clean turban on his head,” and the text goes on, “So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him”. At 3:6–7 the LORD’s angel solemnly assures Joshua, saying, “The LORD of Armies says: ‘If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts’”. 6:11 gives, in the LORD’s word that comes to the speaker, “Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest”, and the text does not say that it was done. The Korean Revised Version names the LORD as the one who shows and speaks at 3:1 and 3:4, where WEB reads “He”.

1In the seventh month, in the twenty-first day of the month, the LORD’s word came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
2“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
3‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Isn’t it in your eyes as nothing?
4Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD. ‘Be strong, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says the LORD of Armies.
5This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. ‘Don’t be afraid.’
6For this is what the LORD of Armies says: ‘Yet once more, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the dry land;
7and I will shake all nations. The treasure of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Armies.
8The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,’ says the LORD of Armies.
9‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of Armies; ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ says the LORD of Armies.”

1He showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the LORD’s angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2The LORD said to Satan, “The LORD rebuke you, Satan! Yes, the LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?”
3Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
4He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, “Take the filthy garments off him.” To him he said, “Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.”
5I said, “Let them set a clean turban on his head.” So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him; and the LORD’s angel was standing by.
- ZEC 3:6–10, engwebp
6The LORD’s angel solemnly assured Joshua, saying,
7“The LORD of Armies says: ‘If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give you a place of access among these who stand by.
8Hear now, Joshua the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign; for, behold, I will bring out my servant, the Branch.
9For, behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua: on one stone are seven eyes; behold, I will engrave its inscription,’ says the LORD of Armies, ‘and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10In that day,’ says the LORD of Armies, ‘you will invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.’”

9The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
10“Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
11Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
12and speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build the LORD’s temple.
13He will build the LORD’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.
14The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the LORD’s temple.
15Those who are far off shall come and build in the LORD’s temple; and you shall know that the LORD of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God’s voice.”’”

1 Chronicles 6:14–15 says that Seraiah became the father of Jehozadak, and that Jehozadak went into captivity when the LORD carried Judah and Jerusalem away by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar. Ezra 3:2 names Jeshua the son of Jozadak. Haggai 1:1 names Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. 1 Chronicles 6:14–15 and Haggai 1:1 write the same name in both editions (the Korean 여호사닥, WEB Jehozadak), and Ezra 3:2 writes another in both (the Korean 요사닥, WEB Jozadak). 1 Chronicles 6:15 names no son of Jehozadak, Haggai 1:1 names no father of Jehozadak, and Ezra 3:1–3 names no father of Jozadak. This collection records Jehozadak (son of Seraiah) (person-jehozadak), Jehozadak (father of Joshua) (person-jehozadak-joshua) and Jozadak (person-jozadak) apart, and does not decide whether any of them are the same man.

Ezra 3:2 and 5:2 name “Jeshua the son of Jozadak” and give him no title; Haggai 1:1, 1:12 and 1:14 name “Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest”. In both editions the two books write the name and the father’s name otherwise (the Korean 예수아 and 여호수아, 요사닥 and 여호사닥; WEB Jeshua and Joshua, Jozadak and Jehozadak). Ezra 5:2 says that Zerubbabel and Jeshua rose up and began to build God’s house which is at Jerusalem, and Haggai 1:14–15, that Zerubbabel, Joshua, and all the remnant of the people came and worked on the house of the LORD of Armies, their God, in the twenty-fourth day of the month, in the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king.

He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, ‘Take the filthy garments off him.’ To him he said, ‘Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing.’” At 3:5 the speaker says, “Let them set a clean turban on his head,” and the text goes on, “So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him”. At 3:6–7 the LORD’s angel solemnly assures Joshua, saying, “The LORD of Armies says: ‘If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts’”. 6:11 gives, in the LORD’s word that comes to the speaker, “Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest”, and the text does not say that it was done.
