Who this is
Perez-uzzah, meaning the breach of Uzzah, was the name David gave to the threshing floor where Uzzah was struck dead for touching the ark of the covenant to steady it during its transport toward Jerusalem (2 Sam. 6:6-8; 1 Chr. 13:9-11). The episode led David to leave the ark at the house of Obed-edom for three months before resuming the journey.
