Ephah, Caleb’s concubine The mention of "Ephah" as a concubine of Caleb provides insight into the familial and social structures of ancient Israel. In Hebrew, the term for concubine is "pilegesh," which denotes a woman who, while not a wife, held a recognized and legitimate position within the household. This reflects the patriarchal society of the time, where concubinage was a common practice for expanding family lines and securing alliances. Caleb, a prominent figure from the tribe of Judah, is known for his faithfulness and courage, particularly during the exploration of Canaan (Numbers 13-14). The inclusion of Ephah in the genealogical record underscores the importance of all family members in the lineage of Israel, highlighting God's use of diverse individuals to fulfill His purposes. bore Haran, Moza, and Gazez Haran was the father of Gazez (46) Ephah, Caleb's concubine . . .--These sons of concubines appear to represent mixed populations or tribal groups considered to be of less pure descent than the chief houses of Caleb. The same title of inferiority might cover a relation of dependence, something like that of the clients of the great Roman houses. The name Ephah occurred in 1Chronicles 1:33 as a tribe of the Midianites. It is likely, therefore, that we have before us a record of the admixture of a Midianite element with the southern Judeans. Haran.--Abraham's brother (Genesis 11:26); a place in Mesopotamia where Abraham settled (Genesis 11:31). It is the Assyrian harranu (high-road). The Midianites claimed descent from Abraham (1Chronicles 1:33), this name therefore might well be borne by a semi-Midianite clan. . . . Verses 46-49 give the names (the first of which appears as that of a man also, next verse and 1 Chronicles 1:33) of two additional concubines of Caleb, and of their descendants.Parallel Commentaries ...
