koz (קוץ, kōc, ?thorn?): A man of Judah (1Ch_4:8). the American Standard Revised Version has added the article, making the name Hakkoz without sufficient reason. The name occurs with the article (Ha-ḳōc) in Ezr_2:61; Neh_3:4, Neh_3:21; Neh_7:63, and 1Ch_24:10, but not with reference to the same person. Coz was of the tribe of Judah, while Hakkoz belonged to the family of Aaron.
