AHIMAAZ

(Heb. ʾăḥîmaʿaṣ)

1. The father of Saul’s wife Ahinoam (1 Sam. 14:50).

2. The son of Zadok the priest. Along with Jonathan, the son of Abiathar, he kept David informed of the progress of Absalom’s rebellion (2 Sam. 15:27, 36; 17:20). When Absalom died, Ahimaaz insisted on personally relaying the news to the king (2 Sam. 18:19-30).

3. One of Solomon’s commissary officers, assigned to Naphtali (1 Kgs. 4:15). He was married to Basemath, a daughter of Solomon. Some scholars suggest that the name indicates the father of an officer, whose name has been omitted from the account, and that he may therefore be the same as 2 above.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
