HAKKOZ
hak'-oz (haqqots, or ha-qots, "the nimble"):
(1) A priest and chief of the 7th course of Aaron's sons selected by David (1 Chronicles 24:10). According to Ezra 2:61; Nehemiah 3:4,21; 7:63, his descendants returned with Zerubbabel from the captivity. But the King James Version considers the name in Ezra and Nehemiah as having the article prefixed, hence renders "Koz."
(2) One of Judah's descendants (1 Chronicles 4:8).
