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 12:5

12:5 Then David became very angry at this man. He said to Nathan, “As surely as the Lord lives, the man who did this deserves to die!


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 man doing this [is] a son of death.” See 1 Sam 20:31 for another use of this expression, which must mean “he is as good as dead” or “he deserves to die,” as 1 Sam 20:32 makes clear.
