Expanded Bible

Caleb’s Land

⁶ One day ·some men from the tribe of Judah [^Lthe sons/descendants of Judah] went to Joshua at Gilgal [4:19]. Among them was Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite. He said to Joshua, “You remember what the Lord said at Kadesh Barnea when he was speaking to ·the prophet Moses [^LMoses, the man of God] about you and me [Num. 14:6–9, 24, 30]. ⁷ Moses, the Lord’s servant, sent me to ·look at [spy out] the land where we were going. I was forty years old then. When I came back, I ·told Moses what I thought about the land [brought back an honest report; ^Lbrought him word as it was in my heart; Num. 13:30]. ⁸ The other men who went with me ·frightened the people [^Lmade the heart of the people melt; Num. 13:27–29; 14:1–4], but I ·fully believed the Lord would allow us to take the land [or remained loyal to the Lord; ^Lfollowed the Lord].
