2 Samuel 6:8

6:8 David was angry because the Lord attacked Uzzah; so he called that place Perez Uzzah, which remains its name to this very day.

2 Samuel 11:16

11:16 So as Joab kept watch on the city, he stationed Uriah at the place where he knew the best enemy soldiers were.

2 Samuel 18:6

18:6 Then the army marched out to the field to fight against Israel. The battle took place in the forest of Ephraim.


tn Heb “because the Lord broke out [with] a breaking out [i.e., an outburst] against Uzzah.”

sn The name Perez Uzzah means in Hebrew “the outburst [against] Uzzah.”

tn Heb “the valiant men.” This refers in context to the strongest or most valiant defenders of the city Joab and the Israelite army were besieging, so the present translation uses “the best enemy soldiers” for clarity.
