(pee' rehz-uhz' zuh) Place name meaning, “breach of Uzzah.” Site of the threshing floor of Nacon (or Chidon) west of Jerusalem on the Kiriath-jearim road where the anger of the Lord “broke out” against Uzzah, who touched the ark to steady it (2 Samuel 6:8; 1 Chronicles 13:11 ). The site is perhaps that of khirbet el-Uz about two miles east of Kiriath-jearim.
