Although his name appears in the list of the Zadokite family (1 Chr. 5:30-40, 6:4-15 in other translations) there is no direct evidence in the Bible that he was a High Priest. According to the Book of Chronicles, Azariah was believed to have been a priest that served at King Solomon's Temple.[2] Azariah (Azarias) does appear on the list of High Priests by Josephus.[3]
