And Caleb said: he that smiteth. This whole history is declared in the 15. chap. of the book of Joshua, word for word, whereby it appeareth that it is most certain which I before admonished you of,1 namely that all these things are now mentioned by a certain repetition. The conquering of Debir seemeth to have ben painful and dangerous, and marvellously much desired of Caleb, when as he offereth so ample & noble a gift to the conqueror thereof: namely his own daughter to wife, being him self the prince of the most noble tribe of Judah.
And Chaleb sayd: he that smiteth. This whole history is declared in the 15. chap. of the booke of Iosua, word for word, wherby it appeareth that yt is most certain whiche I before admonished you of,1 namely that all these thinges are now mencioned by a certain repeticiō. The conquering of Debir semeth to haue ben paynefull and daungerous, and meruelously much desired of Chaleb, when as he offreth so ample & noble a gift to the conquerour therof: namely his owne daughter to wyfe, being him selfe the prince of the most noble tribe of Iudah.

And Othoniel the son of Kenaz Caleb's younger brother took it. It is certain that Othoniel obtained the victory: but whether be were Caleb's brother, or his brothers son or some other kin to him it cannot be gathered by these words. But how they were kin it were good to know, partly for the knowledge of the history & partly to understand whether the matrimony which followed between Othoniel and Achsah were lawful. In the first book of Paralip. 1and second chap. the father of Caleb is called Hesron, which man was the third from Judah: for Judah had Pharez by Tamar his sons wife: and Phares begat Hefron, which was called by an other name Jephuna, for which cause Caleb is very often written the son of Jephuna.
