Leaders
anointed (one) = a (non-eschatological) ruler appointed by God and anointed with oil by a prophet or priest In the post-exilic period an ideology of “bicephalic leadership” seems to have existed, argued on the basis of Zec 6.12–14; 4.2–3,11–14; 8.9–17, Hag 1.12–14.This king-priest duality is found strongly in Chronicles too, which evaluates Israelite history in these very terms of shared leadership. However, neither Jubilees nor Qumran cite Haggai or Zechariah in this context. For further reading cf. SAHD article.
