| Joshua 14:6 | Then the children of Juda came to Josue, in Galgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephone, the Cenezite, spoke to him: *Thou knowest what the Lord spoke to Moses, the man of God, concerning me and thee in Cades-barne. Numbers 14:24. | Jephone was the father of Caleb. Esron and Cenez probably some of his ancestors, 1 Paralipomenon 2:18., and Numbers 33:12. What Caleb here asserts, must have been delivered by word of mouth, in the hearing of the people, Deuteronomy 1:36. Moses declared not that Caleb was to have the whole country but that he should enter into it, and possess the environs of Hebron. (Calmet) |
