<p> ''''' | <p> PEREZ-UZZA or PEREZ-UZZAH ("Uzzah's breaking"). (See PERAZIM.) 1 Chronicles 13:11; 1 Chronicles 15:13; 2 Samuel 6:8. So [[David]] named Nachon's or Chidoh's threshing floor, because [[Jehovah]] made a breach or breaking forth on [[Uzzah]] for his presumptuous rashness in stretching forth his hand to support the shaken ark. Now Khirbet el [[Uz]] or Auz, two miles from [[Kirjath]] Jearim, on the hill above Chesla (Chesalon), a short way before Kuryet es Saideh, "the blessed city," i.e. the abode of [[Obed]] [[Edom]] whom God" blessed." Uzzah was a [[Kohathite]] [[Levite]] (Josephus, Ant. 6:1, section 4). The ark was taken to his father Abinadab's house, as subsequently to Obed Edom's, just because he was a Levite. [[Probably]] the [[Amminadab]] of 1 Chronicles 15:10, of Kohath's family (1 Chronicles 6:18); Numbers 4:5; Numbers 4:15, shows the [[Kohathites]] were to bear but not to touch the ark, which was the office of Aaron's family. So ministers claiming the sacerdotal priest's office usurp Christ's office at their peril. </p> | ||

<p> (Heb. Pe'rets Uzza', פֶּרֶוֹ עֻזָּא, 1 Chronicles 13:11), or Pe'rez-Uz'zah (Heb. Pe'rets UzzoAh'. פֶּרֶוֹ עֻזָּה, breach of Uzzah, 2 Samuel 6:8; Sept. Διασκοπὴ Ο᾿ζ ), the name which [[David]] conferred on the threshing- floor of Nachon, or Chidon, in commemoration of the sudden death of Uzzah: "And David was wroth because [[Jehovah]] had broken this breach on Uzzah, and he called the place ‘ Uzzah's breaking' unto this day." The word perez was a favorite with David on such occasions. He employed it to commemorate his having "broken up" the [[Philistine]] force in the valley of [[Rephaim]] (2 Samuel 5:20). (See Baalpera-Zim). He also used it in a subsequent reference to Uzzah's destruction in 1 Chronicles 15:13. It is remarkable that the statement of the continued existence of the name should be found not only in Samuel and Chronicles, but also in Josephus, who says (Ant. 7:4, 2), as if from his own observation, "the place where he died is even now (ἔτι νῦν ) called ‘ the cleaving of Oza."' About a mile and a half or two miles from the site of Kirjath-jearim, on the hill immediately above Chesla, the ancient Chesalon, on the road thence towards Jerusalem, is a small village still called Khirbet el- Uz, or "the ruins of Uzzah." It is given by Prof. Robinson among the names of places west of [[Jerusalem]] as Khirbet el-Lauz, or, as it should be written, Khirbet el-Auz. This seems to be Perez-Uzzah. The position, on the road to Jerusalem, near the site of Obed-edom's house, and not far from the site of Kirjath-jearim, all correspond. David, Ibeing afraid, it is said, to proceed with the ark towards Jerusalem, "carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite." It seems therefore that the house of Obed-edom must have been near or in the immediate neighborhood of Perez-Uzzah. (See [[Obededom]]). </p> | |||
