General Notes
CALEB A dog. 2. One of the three sons of Hezron of the tribe of Judah. Heis also cal led Chelubai (1 Chronicles 2:9). His descendants are enumerated (18-20,4 2-49). The book of Moses says Jethro was ordained by Caleb, who may be the fat her-in-law of Miriam. Perhaps Miriam sent Moses to Jethro, a friend of h er father-in-law. This is VERY obscure. Hmmm....
