SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:13
¶ Mas a Caleb, hijo de Jefone, dio parte entre los hijos de Judá, conforme al mandamiento del SEÑOR a Josué; esto es , a Quiriat-arba, del padre de Anac, que es Hebrón.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 15:13
Verse 13. And unto Caleb-he gave a part] See the notes on chap. xiv. 14, &c.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah , etc.] That is, Joshua gave it to him. This account is inserted before the cities in the lot of the tribe of Judah were enumerated, to show what was to be excepted from them, and which had been given to Caleb previous to the lot: according to the commandment of the Lord to Joshua ; for as he had declared this to Moses, ( Deuteronomy 1:36); so it seems he also gave the same order to Joshua, who, it is not improbable, might consult the Lord about it when Caleb made his request, ( Joshua 14:12); [even] the city of Arba the father of Anak, which [city is] Hebron ; (see Gill on “ Joshua 14:15”).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-19 - Achsah obtained some land by Caleb's free grant. He gave her a sout land. Land indeed, but a south land, dry and apt to be parched. Sh obtained more, on her request, and he gave the upper and the nethe springs. Those who understand it but of one field, watered both with the rain of heaven, and the springs that issued out of the earth countenance the allusion commonly made to this, when we pray for spiritual and heavenly blessings which relate to our souls, a blessings of the upper springs, and those which relate to the body an the life that now is, as blessings of the nether springs. All the blessings, both of the upper and the nether springs, belong to the children of God. As related to Christ, they have them freely given of the Father, for the lot of their inheritance.
