Ahimaaz.
2 S. 18:23,27‑29• 23Mas él respondió: Sea lo que fuere, yo correré. Entonces le dijo: Corre. Corrió pues Ahimaas por el camino de la llanura, y pasó delante de Cusi.
 27Y el atalaya volvió á decir: Paréceme el correr del primero como el correr de Ahimaas hijo de Sadoc. Y respondió el rey: Ese es hombre de bien, y viene con buena nueva.
 28Entonces Ahimaas dijo en alta voz al rey: Paz. E inclinóse á tierra delante del rey, y dijo: Bendito sea Jehová Dios tuyo, que ha entregado á los hombres que habían levantado sus manos contra mi señor el rey.
 29Y el rey dijo: ¿El mozo Absalom tiene paz? Y Ahimaas respondió: Vi yo un grande alboroto cuando envió Joab al siervo del rey y á mí tu siervo; mas no sé qué era. (2 S. 18:23,27‑29)
;

avenged him.
Heb. judged him from the hand, etc.
Sal. 7:6,8‑9• 6Levántate; oh Jehová, con tu furor; Alzate á causa de las iras de mis angustiadores, Y despierta en favor mío el juicio que mandaste.
 8Jehová juzgará los pueblos: Júzgame, oh Jehová, conforme á mi justicia y conforme á mi integridad.

Ro. 12:19• 19No os venguéis vosotros mismos, amados míos; antes dad lugar á la ira; porque escrito está: Mía es la venganza: yo pagaré, dice el Señor. (Ro. 12:19)
• Joab, always politically shrewd and knowing the king's feelings toward Absalom, tries to discourage him, but in vain. It matters little to Ahimaaz whether this may hurt him personally or hinder his career; he does not share Joab's politics. Whatever may come of it, he desires to be the first, bowed before the king, to acknowledge the dignity that again is his. This is the focus of all his energy, for he belongs to David wholeheartedly. Perhaps he also is thinking of breaking and softening the blow that Absalom's death will inflict on his beloved master's heart. One thing is certain: he has only David's glory in view. May we run like Ahimaaz! (“Absalom's Death and David's Broken Heart: 2 Samuel 18” by H.L. Rossier)
