1Ch 2:46 | KD | STEP | Descendants of Caleb by two concubines. - The name עיפה occurs in and as a man’s name. Caleb’s concubine of this name bore three sons: Haran, of whom nothing further is known; Moza, which, though in it is the name of a Benjamite town, is not necessarily on that account the name of a town here; and Gazez, unknown, perhaps a grandson of Caleb, especially if the clause “Haran begat Gazez” be merely an explanatory addition. But Haran may also have given to his son the name of his younger brother, so that a son and grandson of Caleb may have borne the same name.
