Uz

Listen from:
1. Son of Aram, a son of Shem (Gen. 10:23; 1 Chron. 1:17).
2. Son of Dishan, a son of Seir (Gen. 36:28; 1 Chron. 1:42).
3. The native land of Job, perhaps the district peopled by the descendants of one of the above, or of Huz the son of Nahor (Job 1:1; Jer. 25:20; Lam. 4:21). It is supposed to have been in the south-east of Palestine towards Arabia Deserta, which would lie open to attacks from the Sabeans and the Chaldeans.
