Sadoc

Sadoc is a name of ancient Hebrew origin, derived from the Hebrew word 'tsaddiq' (צַדִּיק), meaning 'righteous' or 'just'. It is most famously associated with Zadok, a high priest of Israel during the reigns of King David and King Solomon in the Old Testament. Zadok was a pivotal figure, loyal to David during Absalom's rebellion and instrumental in anointing Solomon as king. His descendants, the Zadokite priests, held significant religious authority in ancient Israel.

The name has seen occasional use throughout history, particularly in religious contexts, due to its biblical prominence. While not widely common, its strong biblical roots give it a sense of tradition and virtue. It has appeared in various forms and transliterations across different languages and cultures that have engaged with the Hebrew scriptures.
