Footnotes
Kalev ben Yefunneh heads the list — and the placement is no accident. He and Yehoshua were the only two spies who urged Israel to trust YHWH and enter the land (Num. 13–14). Now, forty years later, Kalev is appointed to oversee its very distribution. His name (כָּלֵב) likely derives from *kelev* (dog) — suggesting utter loyalty, the creature who follows its master completely. YHWH honours his *ruach acheret* ("different spirit," Num. 14:24) with exactly the responsibility he had believed in a generation before. FOG retains Kalev; FOG Message uses Caleb.
