Buz

Kitto's Popular Cyclopedia of Biblical Literature

Buz, son of Nahor and Milcah, and brother of Huz (Genesis 22:21). Elihu, one of Job's friends, who is distinguished as an Aramaean or Syrian (Job 32:2), was doubtless descended from this Buz. Judgments are denounced upon the tribe of Buz by Jeremiah (Jeremiah 25:23; and from the context this tribe appears to have been located in Arabia Deserta.
