Caleb

Caleb (Generation 26 • Child of Jephunneh ): Caleb is the son of Jephunneh ( Numbers 13:6 ) who was a Kenizzite ( Numbers 32:12 ) of the tribe of Judah ( Numbers 13:6 ). Kenizzites were Canaanites ( Genesis 15:18-21 ). Judah 's first wife (Shua's daughter) was a Canaanite woman( Genesis 38:2 , 12 ). She bore him Er, Onan , and Shelah ( 1 Chronicles 2:3 ) but Er and Onan died. Ergo, it is likely Caleb is descended from Shelah .
