(15) The sons of Caleb, son of Jephunneh.--Caleb son of Jephunneh is called the Kenizzite, Joshua 14:6-14. He obtained "a part among the children of Judah" (Joshua 15:13), "because that he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel" (Joshua 14:14). If Caleb the Kenizzite and his clan were received among the Hezronite houses of Judah, this new division of the Hezronites would henceforth be known as "the house of Caleb," 1Samuel 25:3; or simply "Caleb" (= Chelubai, the Calebite). (See Notes on 1Chronicles 2:42; 1Chronicles 2:49.) . . .
