Caleb

Following the Israelite conquest of Canaan, Caleb was described as a Kenizzite and is said to have received lands originally intended for the Tribe of Judah.

Caleb is related to the Hebrew word for 'dog' (כֶּלֶב, keleḇ), with The Jewish Encyclopedia reporting that the animal is thought to be "the totem of a clan".

They spread doubt and fear among all the people, who again wished to be back in Egypt (chapter 14 v 1-4) Caleb the spy is the son of Jephunneh.

The Kenizzites are listed as one of the nations associated with the land of Canaan at the time that God made a covenant with Abraham (Genesis 15:19).

[9] One account records that Caleb wanted to bring produce from the land, but that the other spies discouraged him from doing so in order to avoid giving the Israelites a positive impression of Canaan.

[10] A Midrash refers to Caleb being devoted to the Lord and to Moses, splitting from the other scouts to tour Hebron on his own and visit the graves of the Patriarchs.

[12] Caleb (Arabic: كالب, romanized: Kālib) is referenced indirectly in the Quran and some scholars consider him to be one of the Prophets of Islam, though this is debated.
