Uzza

strengh, a garden in which Manasseh and Amon were buried (2 Kings 21:18, 26). It was probably near the king’s palace in Jerusalem, or may have formed part of the palace grounds. Manasseh may probably have acquired it from some one of this name.

Uzza

UZZA.1. A Benjamite family (1Ch 8:7). 2. A family of Nethinim (Ezr 2:48 = Neh 7:51 [1Es 5:31 Ozias]). 3. The driver of the cart on which the ark was removed from Kiriath-jearim (2Sa 6:3; 2Sa 6:6-8 [in 2Sa 6:6-8 the name is Uzzah] = 1Ch 13:7; 1Ch 13:9-11). Uzzas sudden death at a place called, in commemoration of this untoward incident, Perez-uzzah (breach of Uzzah), led to the temporary abandonment of Davids project of transporting the ark to Jerusalem. Uzzas death was attributed by the popular mind to anger on the part of Jahweh at his having presumed to handle the sacred emhlem too familiarly. 4. A garden of Uzza (2Ki 21:18; 2Ki 21:26) was attached to the palace of Manasseh.

Uzza

Uz’za. (strength).

1. A Benjamite of the sons of Ehud. 1Ch 8:7. (B.C. 1445).

2. Elsewhere called Uzzah. 1Ch 13:7; 1Ch 13:9-11. See Uzzah.

3. The children of Uzza were a family of Nethinim who returned with Zerubbabel. Ezr 2:49; Neh 7:51. (B.C. before 536).

4. Properly Uzzah. As the text now stands, Uzzah is a descendant of Merari, 1Ch 6:29; 1Ch 6:14; but there appears to be a gap in the verse. Perhaps he is the same as Zina or Zizah, the son of Shimei, 1Ch 23:10-11, for these names evidently denote the same person, and, in Hebrew character, are not unlike Uzzah.
