His account is primarily found in the books of 2 Samuel and 1 Kings.<br><br><b>Lineage and Family</b><br><br>Ahimaaz was the son of Zadok, the high priest during the reign of King David. Zadok was a descendant of Aaron, the brother of Moses, and served as a faithful priest and advisor to David. Ahimaaz's mother is not mentioned in the biblical text, but he is known to have had a brother named Azariah. Ahimaaz's lineage is significant as it places him within the priestly line, which held considerable influence and responsibility in ancient Israel.<br><br><b>Role as a Messenger</b><br><br>Ahimaaz is best known for his role as a messenger during the turbulent period of Absalom's rebellion against King David. In <a href="/2_samuel/15-27.htm">2 Samuel 15:27</a>, David instructs Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, to return to Jerusalem with the Ark of the Covenant and to use their sons, Ahimaaz and Jonathan, as informants to relay information about Absalom's movements. This strategic decision highlights Ahimaaz's reliability and trustworthiness.<br><br>In <a href="/bsb/2_samuel/18.htm">2 Samuel 18</a>, Ahimaaz volunteers to bring news of Absalom's defeat to King David. Despite Joab's initial reluctance to send him, Ahimaaz insists and is eventually allowed to run. Demonstrating his swiftness, he outruns the Cushite messenger and reaches David first. However, out of respect and perhaps fear of delivering bad news, Ahimaaz only partially informs David, saying, "All is well!" and that there was a great commotion, but he refrains from explicitly stating Absalom's death (<a href="/2_samuel/18-28.htm">2 Samuel 18:28-29</a>).<br><br><b>Character and Attributes</b><br><br>Ahimaaz is portrayed as a loyal and eager servant, willing to take risks to serve his king. His desire to deliver news to David, even when it involved potential danger or distressing information, underscores his dedication and courage. His swiftness in running also suggests physical prowess and determination.<br><br><b>Later Life and Legacy</b><br><br>The Bible does not provide further details about Ahimaaz's life after the events of Absalom's rebellion. However, his role as a messenger and his connection to the priestly line of Zadok suggest that he continued to serve in a capacity that supported the stability and spiritual leadership of Israel.<br><br>In <a href="/1_kings/4-15.htm">1 Kings 4:15</a>, an Ahimaaz is mentioned as one of Solomon's twelve district governors, married to Basemath, Solomon's daughter. While it is not explicitly stated that this is the same Ahimaaz, the connection to the royal family and the name's recurrence within the priestly context suggest a continuation of his family's influence and service to the monarchy.<br><br>Ahimaaz's account, though brief, reflects themes of loyalty, service, and the importance of communication in leadership. His actions during a critical moment in Israel's history demonstrate the vital role of messengers and the trust placed in them by their leaders.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Ahimaaz</span><p>a brother of the council<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Ahimaaz</span><p>(<i>brother of anger</i>). <ol> <li>Son of Zadok the high priest in David's reign, and celebrated for his swiftness of foot. During Absalom's rebellion he carried to David the important intelligence that Ahithophel had counselled an immediate attack upon David and his followers. (<a href="/2_samuel/15-24.htm">2 Samuel 15:24-37</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/17-15.htm">17:15-22</a>) Shortly afterwards he was the first to bring to the king the good news of Absalom's defeat.

He was swift of foot, and was the first to carry to David tidings of the defeat of Absalom, although he refrained, from delicacy of feeling, from telling him of his death (<a href="/2_samuel/18-19.htm">2 Samuel 18:19</a>-33). <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">AHIMAAZ</span><p>a-hi-ma'-az, a-him'-a-az ('achima`ats, perhaps "my brother is rage," or "brother of rage"):<br><br>(1) Father of Ahinoam the wife of King Saul (<a href="/1_samuel/14-50.htm">1 Samuel 14:50</a>).<br><br>(2) The son of Zadok the high priest (<a href="/1_chronicles/6-8.htm">1 Chronicles 6:8, 9, 53</a>). With his father he remained loyal to David in the rebellions both of Absalom and of Adonijah. With Jonathan the son of Abiathar he carried information to Dared when he fled from Absalom (<a href="/2_samuel/15-27.htm">2 Samuel 15:27, 36</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/17-17.htm">2 Samuel 17:17, 20</a>). At his own urgent request he carried tidings to David after the death of Absalom (<a href="/2_samuel/18-19.htm">2 Samuel 18:19</a>). He told the king of the victory, and also, through his reluctance to speak, informed him of Absalom's death. By his reluctance and his sympathy he softened a little the message, which the Cushite presently repeated more harshly.<br><br>That Ahimaaz did not succeed his father as high priest has been inferred from the fact that in the Solomon list of heads of departments (<a href="/1_kings/4-2.htm">1 Kings 4:2</a>) Azariah the son of Zadok is mentioned as priest. It is assumed that this Azariah is the one who appears in the genealogy as the son of Ahimaaz, and that for some reason Ahimaaz was left out of the succession. These inferences are not Justified by the record, though possibly the record does not absolutely disprove them. As the list stands it makes Zadok and Abiathar the high priests. Azariah and Zabud, the son of Nathan (<a href="/1_kings/4-2.htm">1 Kings 4:2, 5</a>), are spoken of as holding priestly offices of a different kind. Ahimaaz may have died early, or may have followed some other career, but the simple fact is that we do not know.<br><br>(3) Ahimaaz, in Naphtali, was one of Solomon's twelve commissary officers (<a href="/1_kings/4-15.htm">1 Kings 4:15</a>), who married Basemath the daughter of Solomon. It is not impossible that he was Ahimaaz the son of Zadok, though there is no proof to that effect.<br><br>Willis J.
