David left Zadok the priest and the other priests who served with him in front of the Tent of the Lord at the place of worship in Gibeon.
Zadok son of Ahitub and Abiathar son of Ahimelech were priests. Seraiah was the royal secretary.
But Zadok the priest, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and King David’s special guard did not join Adonijah.
King Solomon went to Gibeon to offer a sacrifice, because it was the most important place of worship. He offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
Zadok was also in that group. He was a strong young warrior, and with him came twenty-two leaders from his family.
Then David asked the priests Zadok and Abiathar and these Levites to come to him: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.
The Holy Tent that Moses made while the Israelites were in the desert and the altar of burnt offerings were in Gibeon at the place of worship.
Then Solomon left the place of worship, the Meeting Tent, at Gibeon and went back to Jerusalem. There King Solomon ruled over Israel.
