What is Gozan?
        GO'ZAN
        , a district of Mesopotamia, 2 Kgs 17:6; 2 Kgs 18:11; 2 Kgs 19:12; 1 Chr 5:26; Isa 37:12; probably identical with Gauzanitis of Ptolemy, and Mygdonia of other writers. It was watered by the Habor, the modern Khabour, a large branch of the Euphrates in Mesopotamia. GRACE denotes the love of God as displayed in his free favor toward men as sinners and destitute of all claim upon him. 1 Tim 1:2. Hence the N.T., which reveals the plan by which this grace is bestowed, is called "the gospel of the grace of God." Acts 20:24. The apostolic Epistles begin with the salutation, "Grace and peace be with you."
