Caleb’s Family

18 Caleb son of Hezron had children by his wife Azubah and by Jerioth. Caleb and Azubah’s sons were Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon. 19 When Azubah died, Caleb married Ephrath. They had a son named Hur, 20 who was the father of Uri, who was the father of Bezalel.

21 Later, when Hezron was sixty years old, he married the daughter of Makir, Gilead’s father. Hezron had sexual relations with Makir’s daughter, and she had a son named Segub. 22 Segub was the father of Jair. Jair controlled twenty-three cities in the country of Gilead. 23 (But Geshur and Aram captured the Towns of Jair, as well as Kenath and the small towns around it—sixty towns in all.) All these were descendants of Makir, the father of Gilead.

24 After Hezron died in Caleb Ephrathah, his wife Abijah had his son, named Ashhur. Ashhur became the father of Tekoa.
