Joshua 14:12-15

12Now then, give me this hill country about which the Lord spoke on that day, for you heard on that day that 1Anakim were there, with great fortified cities; perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I will 2drive them out as the Lord has spoken.”

13So Joshua 3blessed him and 4gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance. 14Therefore, Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite until this day, because he followed the Lord God of Israel fully. 15Now the name of Hebron was formerly 5Kiriath-arba; for Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim. 6Then the land had rest from war.
