It is a rock, not a man. Bozez and Seneh were the two crags on either side of the pass where Jonathan and his armor-bearer climbed up to surprise the Philistine garrison at Michmash.

Who this is

Bozez was not a person but one of two rocky crags, the other named Seneh, that flanked the narrow pass through which Jonathan and his armor-bearer climbed to surprise the Philistine garrison at Michmash (1 Sam. 14:4-5). The steep terrain around Michmash still matches the description in the text.
