Numbers 14:24

14:24 Only my servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit and has followed me fully – I will bring him into the land where he had gone, and his descendants ¹  will possess it.

Numbers 14:30

14:30 You will by no means enter into the land where ²  I swore ³  to settle ⁴  you. The only exceptions are Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

Deuteronomy 1:36-38

1:36 The exception is Caleb son of Jephunneh; ⁵  he will see it and I will give him and his descendants the territory on which he has walked, because he has wholeheartedly followed me.” ⁶  1:37 As for me, the Lord was also angry with me on your account. He said, “You also will not be able to go there. 1:38 However, Joshua son of Nun, your assistant, ⁷  will go. Encourage him, because he will enable Israel to inherit the land. ⁸ 

¹ tn Heb “seed.”

² tn The relative pronoun “which” is joined with the resumptive pronoun “in it” to form a smoother reading “where.”

³ tn The Hebrew text uses the anthropomorphic expression “I raised my hand” in taking an oath.

⁴ tn Heb “to cause you to dwell; to cause you to settle.”

⁵ sn Caleb had, with Joshua, brought back to Israel a minority report from Canaan urging a conquest of the land, for he was confident of the Lord’s power (Num 13:6, 8, 16, 30; 14:30, 38).

⁶ tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun (“me”) has been employed in the translation, since it sounds strange to an English reader for the Lord to speak about himself in third person.

⁷ tn Heb “the one who stands before you”; NAB “your aide”; TEV “your helper.”

⁸ tn Heb “it”; the referent (the land) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
