  JewishEncyclopedia.com - APULIA:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The attention of Ahimaaz, as regards Apulia, was almost entirely confined to the community of Oria, to which his family had belonged, and the members of which he also regarded as the descendants of the captives of Titus.
He says that Hananeel, too, was a noted miracle-worker and liturgical poet; that the archbishop of Oria summoned him to his palace on one occasion, and forced him into a religious dispute, in the course of which the archbishop impeached the correctness of the Jewish calendar with a view of inducing him to accept Christianity.
It was Ahimaaz, the son of the latter, born in 1017, who not only returned to the ancestral dwelling-place in Oria, but also left a number of liturgic pieces, and rescued from oblivion the memory of his ancestors.

 Ahimaaz (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
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 (1 Kings 4:2) 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.
Ahimaaz may have died early, or may have followed some other career, but the simple fact is that we do not know.

 Christopher Ash - 2 Samuel 18:19-9:8 - The death of Absalom - drama and theology
Ahimaaz, by contrast, is the Christian who obeys from the heart, who 'runs' because he really wants to run.
Ahimaaz is the son of Zadok the high priest, a close 'cabinet colleague' of General Joab.
Ahimaaz was one of the loyal runners who had risked their lives to run an intelligence message from occupied Jerusalem to the fugitive David [17:17ff].

Ahimaaz was a chosen messenger of King David at the time when the conflict between King David and his son Absalom took place.
Finally, Joab gave in to Ahimaaz’s request and allowed him to go and tell the king what he knew, which was very little in comparison to what the Cushite had to tell him.
Though Ahimaaz was an appointed messenger of the king, his service to King David was of no use because he did not have a message to bring him.

Ahimaaz volunteered to carry the news to David, but Joab chose to send Cushi.
Ahimaaz had the enthusiasm necessary for his mission.
Paul may have had the experience of Ahimaaz in mind when he wrote, “I do not run aimlessly, I do not box as one beating the air.” 1 Corinthians 9:26.

 AHIMAAZ - the man who ran with half the message - it still happens today
Ahimaaz - the Son of Zadok (the Priest) of whom the word records `he is a good man'.
Ahimaaz asked the Captain of the King's army `let me now run and bear tidings to the King (David), how the Lord has avenged him of his enemies', and Joab said `thou shalt not bear tidings this day....'.
Just as Ahimaaz ran with half a message, there are many good men that run today, also with half a message, running by permission, but are not sent.

Ahimaaz volunteers to bring the news of the victory to David.
It is possible that Joab feared for the life of Ahimaaz and considered he was too valuable a man to be thrown away, for the name of the selected messenger ("Cushi") suggests that he was an Ethiopian, possibly an African servant or slave.

Joab knew that the news would be crushing to David, even though it meant victory, and he preferred that a man known as “the Cushite” should be the one to break the news.
But Ahimaaz insisted on running, so Joab finally said, “Run.” And he was a fast runner.
The world is full of people like Ahimaaz who want assignments of importance in life, but who are unwilling to meet the responsibilities involved.

"Ahimaaz is a good man. He'll bring good news." Ahimaaz outran the Cushite and yelled to the king, "All is well!" Ahimaaz knelt to the ground in front of the king with his face to the ground and said, "Praise the LORD your God!
Is he safe?" Ahimaaz answered, "There was great confusion just as Joab was about to send me. I am not sure what was going on." "Stand aside," the king instructed and together they waited for the second runner.
