AMMI-ZADUGA. Early
Babylonian personal name meaning "my uncle is righteous."
(Early Babylonian Personal Names, Ranke, 1905)
... Zaduga is the Hebrew zadoq, a
root unknown to Assyrian; but the name of Ammi-zaduga recurs in that of
the South Arabian Ammi-zadiqa who, according to an early Minaean
inscription, was appointed by the Minaean king, Abi-yada', governor of the
fortress of Za'r on the Egyptian frontier as well as of the neighbouring
district of Ashur (see Gen. xxv. 3); and in another Minaean inscription we
find the name of Ammi-zaduq. The various ways in which the name of
Ammi-zaduga is written in the contract-tablets of his reign are of
themselves sufficient to show that it was foreign. The grandfather
of Ammi-zaduga was Abesukh, i.e. the Abishua' of the Old Testament, which
the Babylonians transformed into their own word, Ebisum, "the
doer."... (Expository Times, vol. 8, 1897)
