Zechariah 3:1

Next I saw Joshua the high priest ¹  standing before the angel of the Lord, with Satan ²  standing at his right hand to accuse him.

Ge 3:15; Ge 48:16; Ex 3:2-6; Ex 23:20,21; De 10:8; De 18:15; 1Sa 6:20; 2Ch 29:11; Ezr 5:2; Job 1:6-12; Job 2:1-8; Ps 106:23; Ps 109:6; Jer 15:19; Eze 44:11,15; Ho 12:4,5; Hag 1:1,12; Hag 2:4; Zec 1:9,13,19; Zec 2:3; Zec 3:8; Zec 6:11; Mal 3:1; Lu 21:36; Lu 22:31; Ac 7:30-38; 1Pe 5:8; Re 12:9,10

¹ sn Joshua the high priest mentioned here is the son of the priest Jehozadak, mentioned also in Hag 1:1 (cf. Ezra 2:2; 3:2, 8; 4:3; 5:2; 10:18; Neh 7:7; 12:1, 7, 10, 26). He also appears to have been the grandfather of the high priest contemporary with Nehemiah ca. 445 b.c. (Neh 12:10).

² tn The Hebrew term הַשָּׂטָן (hassatan, “the satan”) suggests not so much a personal name (as in almost all English translations) but an epithet, namely, “the adversary.” This evil being is otherwise thus described in Job 1 and 2 and 1 Chr 21:1. In this last passage the article is dropped and “the satan” becomes “Satan,” a personal name.
