Caleb, son of Hezron

This article is about the biblical son of Hezron. For the biblical son of Jephunneh who was sent ahead to scout out the Promised Land, see Caleb.

Caleb was the great-grandfather of the architect Bezalel in the Bible. He is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 2:18 as "Caleb son of Hezron". 1 Samuel 25:3 states that Nabal, the husband of Abigail before David, was "of the house of Caleb". It is not stated whether that refers to one of the two Calebs who are mentioned in the Bible or another person bearing the same name.

According to North,[1] in 1 Chronicles, the names Carmi (כרמי) and Chelubai (2:9) (כלובי) also refer to Caleb.
