Gozan (go'zan), quarry (?). A district to which the Israelites were carried captive. 2 Kings 17:6; 2 Kings 18:11; 2 Kings 19:12; 1 Chronicles 5:26; Isaiah 37:12. Gozan must not be considered as a river; rather the river mentioned in 1 Chronicles 5:26 ran through it; it was probably the region called Gauzanitis by Ptolemy, and Mygdonia by other writers.
