1 Kings 1:8

Zadok] a descendant of Aaron's son Eleazar (1 Chronicles 6:4). It is not clear what were the relative positions of Abiathar and Zadok to one another. In 1 Chronicles 16:39; Zadok is stated to have ministered at the sanctuary at Gibeon, but in 2 Samuel 15:24 both Abiathar and Zadok are represented as being at Jerusalem. In the LXX of 1 Kings 2:35 it is implied that Abiathar was the first, or principal, priest, and Zadok presumably the second. Benaiah] son of Jehoiada (1 Kings 1:36) and commander of the bodyguard of Cherethites, Pelethites and Gittites (see further on 1 Kings 1:38). For his early exploits see 2 Samuel 23:20. Nathan] For other notices of Nathan see 2 Samuel 7:2.; 2 Samuel 12:1.; The mighty men] This was a body of distinguished warriors, nominally 30 in number, who were perhaps officers either of the bodyguard or of the host, and whose names are given in 2 Samuel 23:24; 1 Chronicles 11:26.
