1 Chronicles 2:18

Context
Caleb’s Descendants

2:18 Caleb son of Hezron fathered sons by his wife Azubah (also known as Jerioth). 1  Her sons were Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon.

1 Chronicles 2:21

Context

2:21 Later 2  Hezron had sexual relations with 3  the daughter of Makir, the father of Gilead. (He had married 4  her when he was sixty years old.) She bore him Segub.

1 tn Heb “and Caleb son of Hezron fathered [children] with Azubah, a wife, and with Jerioth.” Jerioth could be viewed as a second wife (so NLT; cf. also NASB, NIV, NRSV), but the following context mentions only “her [presumably Azubah’s] sons.” Another option, the one chosen in the translation, is that Jerioth is another name for Azubah.

2 sn This means “later” in relation to the births of the three sons (Jerahmeel, Ram and Caleb) mentioned in v. 9.

3 tn Heb “Hezron went to.”

4 tn Heb “he took,” referring to taking in marriage.
