Ahimaaz — a name meaning 'my brother is wrath/counsel,' borne by Zadok's son and Saul's father-in-law
Ahimaats ('my brother is wrath' or 'my brother is counsel') is most memorably the swift-footed son of Zadok the priest, who served as David's loyal courier during Absalom's rebellion. With Jonathan son of Abiathar, he relayed intelligence from Jerusalem to David's camp (2 Sam 15:27, 36; 17:17-20). His famous footrace with the Cushite to bring David news of Absalom's death is among the most vivid scenes in 2 Samuel (18:19-29). A second Ahimaaz was Saul's father-in-law (1 Sam 14:50). Spanish 'Ajimaats' and French 'Ahimaaz' preserve the name unchanged.
