Yehoyada Hakohen the First served as leader of the Kohanim and possibly as Kohen Gadol after the Nov massacre until Dovid gained full Kingship over Yisroel. He was the father of Binayahu, one of King Dovid's early warriors and a leading Kabbalist. Binayahu ben Yehoyada had a son Yehoyada the Second who headed the Sanhedrin and was appointed as King Dovid's personal military adviser after the suicide of Achitofel. He in-turn had a son [[Benayahu ben Yehoyada|Binayahu the Second]] who served as head general of King Shlomo. During the reign of King Yoash, a descendent of theirs, Yehoyada the Third served as Kohen Gadol and leader of the Jewish Nation. |
