Commentary
2 notes on this verseAnd the sons of Jahdai,.... Who is not mentioned by this name before; perhaps the same with Moza, who might have two names, though, according to Hillerus (t), he was the son of Moza; some take it to be the name of another of Caleb's concubines, by whom he had the six following sons: Regem, and Jotham, and Geshan, and Pelet, and Ephah, and Shaaph; one of these, Pelet perhaps, gave name to Bethpalet in the tribe of Judah, Jos 15:27. (t) Onomast. Sacr. p. 841.
This site's exposition
the brother of Jerahmeel were, Mesha his firstborn
on 1 Chronicles 2:42-50
A second Caleb, grandson of the Caleb who fathered Hur, opens his own list of descendants called fathers of Ziph, Hebron and other towns in Judah's hill country, a formula the bench reads as founder or prince of each place rather than literal begetting. The name Caleb belongs to two distinct men here, one the son of Hezron and one his own grandson, and the text leaves the repetition standing without comment.
