	Abiathar
		17 Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech should be read, with the Syriac, for Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar.
		Abiathar was deposed (the sole historical instance of the deposition of a high priest) and banished to his home at Anathoth by Solomon, because he took part in the attempt to raise Adonijah to the throne.
		The apparent discrepancy is satisfactorily explained by interpreting the words in Mark as referring to the life-time of Abiathar, and not to the term of his holding the office of high priest.

	Abiathar: People of the Bible
		Abiathar was the only one of all the sons of Ahimelech, the high priest, who escaped the slaughter inflicted upon his father's house by Saul.
		Abiathar, having become high priest, fled to David, and was thus enabled to inquire of the Lord for him (1 Samuel 23:9; 30:7; 2 Samuel 2:1; 5:19), etc. Abiathar on his part was firmly attached to David.
		For this, Abiathar was banished to his native village, Anathoth, in the tribe of Benjamin (Joshua 21:18), and narrowly escaped with his life, which was spared by Solomon only on the strength of his long and faithful service to David his father.

		The rescue of the chief priest Abiathar, in the massacre of the priests of Nob ordered by Saul, was fortunate for the house of David; for if he had lost his life, David's descendants would through divine retaliation have been entirely wiped out of existence at the hands of Athaliah (Sanh.
		Abiathar retained the office until he was deserted by the Holy Spirit, without which the high priest could not successfully consult the Urim and Thummim.

		In Mark 2:26, reference is made to an occurrence in "the days of Abiathar the high priest." But from 1 Samuel 22, we learn explicitly that this event took place when Ahimelech, the father of Abiathar, was high priest.

	Mark 2:26 and Abiathar
		The initial and simple answer notes that the verse in Mark says that this event took place "in the time of" Abiathar the high priest, which is not the same thing as saying that he was the one involved in the episode in question.
		Abiathar served David for the entirety of his reign of 40 years and had the privilege, along with Zadok, of carrying the Ark of the Covenant, the most sacred Jewish religious object.
		So Abiathar died in disgrace, stripped of his priesthood, a turn in his life that was claimed as a prophetic fulfillment that had been pronounced on the house of Eli because of the priestly corruption of Hopni and Phinehas.

	The Skeptical Review Online - Huffing And Puffing (Turkel's Abiathar Quibble) / Part One - Author Farrell Till (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Abiathar served as "a leading priest" after the incident at Nob and after Saul had massacred Ahimelech and all the priests at Nob because of the aid that Ahimelech had given to David.
		Abiathar's association with David began, then, because of David's feeling of responsibility for the massacre of Abiathar's family and not because of any special priestly talents that Abiathar was known for.
		In all of the references to Abiathar, there is nothing--absolutely nothing--to justify Turkel's claim that Abiathar was known as a "stickler for the law." To the contrary, his life ended in disgrace, and his father Ahimelech was the one who was depicted as a priest with high integrity.

		Still, Abiathar and the Mushite Levites from a peripheralized social space would have had a reason to humanize the narrative, name the powers, and redefine the holy in terms of healing--all of which are characteristics of the Deuteronomistic narrative.

		Zadok in Hebrew is 'tsadog', meaning "one proved righteous." Abiathar is 'ebyathar', meaning "at peace with the Lord who is God!" These two priests represent the two priesthoods mentioned by the unknown prophet - one of the spirit of Eli, the other, a ministry unto the Lord.
		Abiathar was coming under the curse of the house of Eli because of the pride, sin, and rebellion that had suddenly sprung up in him like a wildfire.
		This is the offspring of Eli - the Abiathar priesthood!

	Journal of Heresies: Sorting out the heritage of Zadok and Abiathar
		This strongly suggests that Abiathar was nolonger the high priest prior to his banishment to Anathoth, and rightly so since he was essentially retired at least a decade (probably two or three decades) prior.
		However a son of Abiathar named Jonathan is mentioned several times elsewhere and it still appears that Abiathar is an important priest in 2 Sam 15:35 and in 2 Sam 20:25, so 2 Sam 8:17 and 1 Chron 24:6 may contain errors.
		Another twist to all this is thrown in when one writer states that Abiathar was dismissed "to fulfill the the word of YHVH, which He had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh." (1 Kings 2:27) This suggests that Abiathar was descended from Eli, yet Eli does not appear in Abiathars genealogy.

		As was natural, Abiathar served as the priest for this assemblage.

		With the recollection of his own father's death at the hands of another monarch, Saul, Abiathar, disgusted and heartbroken, returned with his family to his village Nob, found it in ruins, and built a house on a small piece of property just north of the town that had belonged to his father.

		Abiathar was not high priest when these events took place but rather his father, Ahimelech, was.
		No doubt Abiathar is recognized here because of his prominence as high priest during the reign of David but to state that he was high priest when David entered the temple is not accurate.
		Yet despite this fact many of the modern versions have Jesus confusing the whole story and stating that "Abiathar was high priest".

		From this we can be certain beyond reasonable doubt, that Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, and his son Abiathar, would have been the high priestly family of the day.
		The most likely reason for Abiathar's escape would have been the requirement of the Law for some priests to remain «at home» to maintain a 24 hour a day priestly presence in the Tabernacle.
		Abiathar could have been High Priest already -- but it was his father Ahimelech, who actually gave the bread to David.

		In 2 Samuel 8:17 "Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech" should be read, with the Syriac, for "Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar." For a similar confusion see Mark 2:26.

	Abiathar and the showbread men of David - TheologyWeb Campus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Neither Ahimelech nor Abiathar are ever given the title in the OT, though it is clear that Abiathar served as a leading priest (along with Zadok) and Ahimelech may have ranked highly as well.
		Unless Abiathar was considered a renegade priest, like Sceva, archiereus should be translated as high priest to be consistent with the rest of the KJV N.T. narrative (excluding the epistles) usage or chief priest in terms of position, not virtue.
		Abiathar was very probably not involved with the showbread incident, so mentioning him seems highly inappropriate.

		Abiathar's father and eighty-three other priests who wore an ephod were slain by Doeg.

		For this he was put to death, together with all the priests of Nobe, except Abiathar, his son, who escaped and joined David (I Kings 21-22).
		(3) There is an Achimelech spoken of (2 Samuel 8:17, and 1 Chronicles 18:16; 24:3, 6, 31), as a "son of Abiathar" and an associate of Sadoc in the priesthood.
		As this position is usually attributed to "Abiathar, son of Achimelech" it is thought that the reading "Achimelech, son of Abiathar" is due to an accidental transposition of the text of Kings, and that this transposition has affected the text of Paralipomenon.
