This is a list of Caleb’s descendants: [23] Hur was Caleb’s first son. He was born to Ephrathah. Hur’s sons were Shobal, the founder [24] of Kiriath Jearim,
and the family groups from Kiriath Jearim. These are the Ithrite people, the Puthite people, the Shumathite people, and the Mishraite people. The Zorathite people and the Eshtaolite people came from the Mishraite people.
From that place the border went to the spring of water of Nephtoah. Then the border went to the cities near Mount Ephron. At that place the border turned and went to Baalah. (Baalah is also called Kiriath Jearim.)
So the people of Israel went to the place where those men lived. On the third day the people of Israel came to the cities of Gibeon, Kephirah, Beeroth, and Kiriath Jearim.
The men of Kiriath Jearim came and took the Lord’s Holy Box. [82] They took the Lord’s Box up the hill to the house of {the priest,} Abinadab. They did a special ceremony to prepare Abinadab’s son, Eleazar, to guard the Lord’s Box.
