ZUZITAS
Race of giants who lived in the district later taken by the Moabites. The identification of the Zuzites of Gn. 14:5, defeated by Chedorlaomer, with the Zomzomites of Deut. 2:20 is supported by a targum from Gen. 14 of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Weakened by the previous campaign, the Moabites later exterminated them, occupying their territory. These terms are of uncertain meaning.
According to Gessenius, “zuzzites” may refer to the fertility of their country, and the latter may mean noisy nations. Other Hebraists and scholars have made other assumptions.
