As a person, Uz is listed as a descendant of Shem, the son of Noah, and is considered an ancestor of various Semitic tribes. As a region, Uz is most famously known as the homeland of Job, the central figure in the Book of Job.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The land of Uz is traditionally associated with the area east of Israel, possibly in the region of Edom or northern Arabia. It was a place known for its wisdom and wealth, as evidenced by the character of Job, who was described as a man of great integrity and prosperity. The cultural context of Uz reflects a society that valued wisdom, counsel, and righteousness, aligning with the broader Semitic traditions of the ancient Near East.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5779.htm">uts</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a son of Aram, also a son of Nahor, also an Edomite, also perhaps a district E. of Pal.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Uz (8).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עוּץ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. masculine a.</b></font> (eldest) 'son' of Aram <a href="/interlinear/genesis/10-23.htm">Genesis 10:23</a> (P), = 'son' of Shem <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/1-17.htm">1 Chronicles 1:17</a>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ως</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> Chronicles <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ουζ</font>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>b.</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>eldest 'son' of Nahor</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/22-21.htm">Genesis 22:21</a> (J), A <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ωξ</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ωζ</font>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>c.</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>Edomite name</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-28.htm">Genesis 36:28</a> = <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/1-42.htm">1 Chronicles 1:42</a>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ως</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ους</font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2. location</b></font> (= <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. a, b</b></font>, possibly also <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>c</b></font>), <font class="hebrew2">מַלְכֵי אֶרֶץ הָעוּץ</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/25-20.htm">Jeremiah 25:20</a> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> omitted);
