Why do we say something is as hard to recognize as Adam's off ox?

Originally people said they didn't know someone from Adam to say they didn't know them at all. This saying evolved in America into not knowing someone from Adam's off-ox. The off-ox in an ox-team was the one one the other side of the team from the driver, who held onto the on-ox to steer the team. So the off-ox was an unknown quantity to the driver because he couldn't see it.
