Caleb and Ephrath had a son. They named him Hur. 20 Hur was Uri's father. Uri was Bezalel's father. 21 Later when Hezron was 60 years old, he married Makir's daughter. Makir was the father of Gilead. Hezron had sexual relations with Makir's daughter, and she gave birth to Segub. 22 Segub was Jair's father. Jair had 23 cities in the country of Gilead. 23 But Geshur and Aram took Jair's villages. Among them were Kenath and the small towns around it. There were 60 small towns in all. All these towns belonged to the sons of Makir, the father of Gilead. 24 After Hezron died in the town of Caleb Ephrathah, his wife Abijah had his son, who was named Ashhur.

Then the Lord God said, "I see that it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make the companion he needs, one just right for him."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Hur begat Uri, and Uri begat Bezaleel. Who yet is not thought to be the same Bezaleel we read of in Exodus 31:2 though the fathers and grandfathers of both have the same names, and were of the same tribe.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 2:20. Uri begat Bezaleel — This was probably the famous artist mentioned Exodus 31:2, &c., where see the notes.
