Joshua 15:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Joshua 15:17

15 Then ^ahe went up from there to the inhabitants of Debir (formerly the name of Debir was Kirjath Sepher).

16 ^aAnd Caleb said, “He who¹ attacks Kirjath Sepher and takes it, to him I will give Achsah my daughter as wife.”

17 So ^aOthniel the ^bson of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him ^cAchsah his daughter as wife.

18 ^aNow it was so, when she came to him, that she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. So ^bshe dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you wish?”

19 She answered, “Give me a ^ablessing; since you have given me land in the South, give me also springs of water.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
