 Ahimaaz
    brother of anger = irascible. (1.) The father Ahinoam, the wife
    of Saul (1 Sam. 14:50).
      (2.) The son and successor of Zadok in the office of high
    priest (1 Chr. 6:8, 53). On the occasion of the revolt of
    Absalom he remained faithful to David, and was of service to him
    in conveying to him tidings of the proceedings of Absalom in
    Jerusalem (2 Sam. 15:24-37; 17:15-21). 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 (2 Sam. 18:19-33).
