1:36 Caleb was one of the twelve spies whom Moses sent to discern the political and military situation in Canaan. Caleb and Joshua alone brought back the report that God would give Israel success in conquering Canaan (Num 13:6, 8, 16, 30). Caleb later became the father-in-law of Othniel, Israel’s first judge (Judg 1:13). For his faithfulness, Caleb was given the vicinity of Hebron as his inheritance, and he expelled the Anakites (see Josh 14:12-15; Judg 1:20).
