2 | Caleb's geneology: One Caleb or two? | 1 Chr 2:1 | Custardflan | 48258 | ||
I'm trying to decipher the geneology of Caleb. There are two Calebs mentioned in this chapter, and I am suspecting they are both the same one mentioned in Numbers and Joshua. That Caleb was selected to represent the tribe of Judah as one of the 12 spies but had a falling out, perhaps over his report that went against the majority and thus lived with the Kenizzites. That or he was a Kennizzite who married into the tribe of Judah, although that doesn't explain him being both a son of Hezron and Jephunneh. | ||||||
3 | Was Jonathan much older than David? | 1 Sam 14:1 | Custardflan | 45587 | ||
According to my Bible, this event occurred in 1087 B.C., more than 20 years before David is annointed by Samuel in 1063 B.C. That would mean that Jonathan is significantly older than David. Traditionally, David and Jonathan are seen as contemporaries -- two young men who have become the closest of friends. But if Jonathan is older than David, then the relationship changes to that of a mentor and student, although still very close. I do not know the basis for my Bible giving the dates as it does. What do you think? |
