SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:14
Por tanto Hebrón fue de Caleb, hijo de Jefone cenezeo, por heredad hasta hoy; porque cumplió siguiendo al SEÑOR Dios de Israel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Joshua 14:14
Verse 14. Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb] Joshua admitted his claim, recognized his right, and made a full conveyance of Hebron and its dependencies to Caleb and his posterity; and this being done in the sight of all the elders of Israel, the right was publicly acknowledged, and consequently this portion was excepted from the general determination by lot; God having long before made the cession of this place to him and to his descendants.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 14. Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day , etc.] The time of the writing of this book: because he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel ; as in ( Joshua 14:8,9); Hebron signifies fellowship or communion; and this in a spiritual sense is very desirable by all the people of God, as Hebron was by Caleb, even communion with God, Father, Son and Spirit, with angels and saints, both now and hereafter; and they are willing to engage with their spiritual enemies in the name and strength of Christ, though ever so potent, may they but enjoy this blessing, and which is more or less granted, to all the hearty, sincere, and faithful followers of Christ; (see John 14:21-23 1 John 1:3,7).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6-15 - Caleb's request is, "Give me this mountain," or Hebron, because it wa formerly in God's promise to him, and he would let Israel knows ho much he valued the promise. Those who live by faith value that which is given by God's promise, far above what is given by his providence only It was now in the Anakims' possession, and Caleb would let Israel know how little he feared the enemy, and that he would encourage them to push on their conquests. Caleb answered to his name, which signifie "all heart." Hebron was settled on Caleb and his heirs, because he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel. Happy are we if we follow him Singular piety shall be crowned with singular favour __________________________________________________________________
