koz ( קוץ , kōc , "thorn"): A man of Judah (1 Chronicles 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 Ezra 2:61; Nehemiah 3:4 , Nehemiah 3:21; Nehemiah 7:63 , and 1 Chronicles 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.
