1 Chronicles 2:46

And Ephah Calebs concubine bare Haran, and Moza, and Gazez: and Haran begate Gazez. 1 Chronicles 2:46 (KJV)

The quoted line does not correspond to any verse in the genealogical sections of 1 Chronicles. No passage in 1 Chronicles records a woman named Ephah as Caleb’s concubine, nor does it list Harar, Moza, or Gazez as her children.

This verse does not exist in the Bible. The book of 1 Chronicles contains genealogical records, but the specific reference provided is incorrect.

In 1 Chronicles 2:19, Caleb’s wife is named Azubah, who bore Jerioth, Shobal, Jahleel, and Mekam. Ephah is mentioned in Genesis 25:4 as a son of Midian, a descendant of Abraham through Keturah, and is unrelated to Caleb. The original claim about Ephah being Caleb’s concubine and bearing children is not supported by Scripture.

“And Ephrath, Caleb’s wife, bare Hur, and Moza, and Gazez: and Hur begat Gazez.”

Caleb was indeed one of the prominent figures in the Bible, known for his faith and courage. He was one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to explore the land of Canaan, and he was one of the two spies who gave a positive report, demonstrating his trust in God’s promise to give the Israelites the land (Numbers 13‑14). Caleb’s faithfulness and loyalty to God resulted in him being one of the few from the older generation to enter the Promised Land (Joshua 14).

While the Bible does reflect the cultural practices of its time, including the presence of concubines, the specific claim that Ephah was Caleb’s concubine is not supported by the biblical text. The Scriptures present the accounts of people as they were, without endorsing all of their practices.

Overall, the passage highlights Caleb’s role as a faithful servant of God, but the genealogical details concerning Ephah, Harar, Moza, and Gazez are not found in the biblical record.
