1 Chronicles 2:42 (King James Version)
Now the sons of Caleb the brother of Jerahmeel were, Mesha his firstborn, which was the father of Ziph; and the sons of Mareshah the father of Hebron.
- Caleb
- This was not Caleb the son of Jephunneh, but Caleb the son of Hezron, and therefore called the brother of Jerahmeel: See the parallel texts:
- 2:9
- Chelubai

- his first-born
- Genesis 49:3 ; Exodus 4:22 Exodus 4:23 ; Romans 8:29 ; Hebrews 12:23
- the father
- i.e, the founder.
- Or, as the Targum renders, "the prince of the Ziphites;" for it was usual to call both the founder and the prince of a city its father.
