Caleb: Caleb, כלב, [Strong's H3612], is the same as Chelubai, כלובי [Strong's H3621], the latter simply having a ו, wav inserted, and a י, yood affixed. This person must have lived some time before Israel left Egypt; for Bezaleel, the principal person employed in constructing the tabernacle, was his grandson. 1 Chronicles 2:9, Chelubai, 1 Chronicles 2:42

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 2:24 - Calebephratah 1 Chronicles 2:46 - Caleb's 1 Chronicles 4:1 - Carmi

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Caleb the son of Hezron,.... The same that is called Chelubai, 1 Chronicles 2:9 but not the same with Caleb the son of Jephunneh, made mention of in the books of Numbers, Joshua, and Judges:

he begat children of Azubah his wife, and of Jerioth; who were both his wives; or it may be rather, since Azubah is so particularly called his wife, Jerioth might be a concubine: or of Azubah he begat Jerioth; so the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Arabic versions; though it seems best with Hillerus p to interpret these names of the same person, and render the last clause, "that is, of Jerioth", of her whose name also was Jerioth, Azubah having two names; and the rather, since only the children of one are mentioned, as follows:

her sons are these; Jesher, and Shobab, and Ardon of whom we read nowhere else; the Targum says, Azubah was so called, because she was barren and despised, which this clause contradicts.

p Onomastic. Sacr. p. 568.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In the remainder of this chapter the writer obtains scarcely any assistance from the earlier Scriptures, and must have drawn almost entirely from genealogical sources, accessible to him, which have since perished.

Azubah was Caleb’s wife; Jerioth his concubine. He had children by both; but those of Azubah are alone recorded.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 2:18. Azubah — "And why was she called Azubah? Because she was barren and despised. But her injury was manifested before the Lord; and she was comforted, and adorned with wisdom; and she span, skilfully, goats' hair for the court of the tabernacle." - T.
