Zekharyahu son of Yehoyada the kohen was remembered as a prophet of Yerushalayim. Yoash king of Yehudah ordered his death beside the altar, and his blood was shed within the sanctuary court.

The kohanim buried him beside his father. The memorial says that afterward signs of disruption appeared in the House: visions ceased, heavenly appearances were no longer seen as before, and the older means of priestly inquiry no longer gave answer in the former manner. This is preserved as a temple-memory tradition attached to his bloodshed.
