Son of Eliakim and father of Zadok, listed in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. Azor is part of the largely unrecorded generations between Zerubbabel and Jesus, a period when the Davidic line continued quietly under foreign rule. Though history records little about him, his place in the genealogy testifies to God’s faithfulness in preserving the messianic lineage.
