1. Ahimelech or Ahijah, whose father he was. (See AHIMELECH; AHIJAH.)
2. Amariah's son, and Zadok the high priest's father, or rather grandfather (1Ch 6:7-8; 2Sa 8:17). Called "ruler of the house of God," i.e. high priest, 1Ch 9:11. In Ne 11:11 Ahitub appears as grandfather of Zadok and father of Meraioth, of the house of Eleazar. Thus there would seem to have been in the same age Ahitub of the house of Eli, sprung from Ithamar, and also Ahitub of the house of Eleazar.
3. The mention of a third Ahitub, son of another Amariah, and father of another Zadok (1Ch 6:11-12), may be a copyist's error.

Hastings
1. Son of Phinehas and grandson of Ell, the father of Ahimelech or Ahijah, the priest who was put to death by Saul (1Sa 14:3; 22:9,20). 2. Acc. to 2Sa 8:17 (= 1Ch 18:16) the father, acc. to 1Ch 9:11; Ne 11:11 the grandfather, of Zadok the priest who was contemporary with David and Solomon. It is very doubtful, however, whether the name Ahitub here is not due to a copyist's error. The text of 2Sa 8:17 should probably run: 'and Zadok and Abiathar the son of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.' 3. Even more doubt attaches to another Ahitub, father of another Zadok (1Ch 6:11-12; cf. 1Es 8:2, 2Es 1:1). 4. An ancestor of Judith, Jdt 8:1.
