Uphaz
Gold from Uphaz overlays idols in Jeremiah and belts the figure in Daniel's vision. Nobody knows where it was, and it may just be a variant of Ophir.
Gold from Uphaz overlays idols in Jeremiah and belts the figure in Daniel's vision. Nobody knows where it was, and it may just be a variant of Ophir.
Uphaz appears in poetic parallel with fine gold, used for idol-overlay and for the girdle of the figure in Daniel's vision (Jer. 10:9; Dan. 10:5). Its exact location is unknown, and many scholars think the name is simply a variant or scribal alteration of Ophir, the better-known source of gold in the biblical world, rather than a separate place.
