אוּפָז‎ ( proper name, of a location unknown & dubious) whence came gold, מֵא ׳זָהָבJeremiah 10:9; א ׳ֶכּתֶםDaniel 10:5; so Thes 1 Kings 10:18 מוּפָז זָהָב‎ (מוּפָז‎ = ׳מֵא‎); but ᵐ5δόκιμος, & 2 Chronicles 9:17 טָהוֺר‎, whence MV Klo make מוּפָז‎ Hoph`al Participle from פזז‎ q. v. Klo reads אוֺפִיר‎ (q. v.) for אוּפָזJeremiah 10:9; Daniel 10:5, in view of אוֺפִיר כֶּתֶםIsaiah 13:12. **Corrupt, see SiegfThLz, Nov. 7, 1883, 530; he explained ׳מֵאJeremiah 10:9 as error for מוּפָז1 Kings 10:18, and ׳אDaniel 10:5 as borrowed from Jeremiah 10:9; in 10:9 Gie reads מֵאוֺפִיר‎, Du either this or מוּפָז‎ (see פזז‎); read מֵאוֺפִיר‎ perhaps also Daniel 10:5 (Dr).
