Perez -
=Pharez, (q.v.), breach, the son of Judah (Neh. 11:4). "The
chief of all the captains of the host for the first month" in
the reign of David was taken from his family (1Chr. 27:3). Four
hundred and sixty-eight of his "sons" came back from captivity
with Zerubbabel, who himself was one of them (1Chr. 9:4; Neh.
11:6).
Perez-uzzah -
the breach of Uzzah, a place where God "burst forth upon Uzzah,
so that he died," when he rashly "took hold" of the ark (2Sam.
6:6-8). It was not far from Kirjath-jearim (q.v.).
