42 à 49 Deuxième appendice.
Nous avons ici une seconde généalogie de Caleb, faite à un autre point de vue que la première ; elle n'est pas personnelle, mais ethnographique et géographique, c'est-à-dire qu'elle donne les noms des familles qui descendaient de Caleb et des lieux où ils habitaient.
Parmi les noms que nous trouvons ici plusieurs sont certainement géographiques. Ce sont les suivants :
- Hébron, Genèse 13.18
- Ziph, Josué 15.55
- Marésa, Josué 15.44
- Thappuach, Josué 15.31
- Maon, Josué 15.55
- Beth-Tsur, Josué 15.58
- Madmanna, Josué 15.31
- Guibéa, Josué 15.57
On peut ajouter aux précédents Rékem, qui était le nom d'une ville de Benjamin (Josué 18.27), mais il pouvait être aussi le nom d'une ville de Juda ; Schéma, qui est peut-être identique avec Schéma, Josué 15.26 ; Jorkéam, qui est peut-être une faute pour Jokdéam (Josué 15.56) ; Motsa (même cas que pour Rékem ; comparez Josué 18.26) ; Macbéna, que le parallèle de Guibéa semble bien désigner comme un nom de ville. Donc, sur trente noms, il y a neuf noms sûrement géographiques et cinq qui le sont probablement. Les autres noms, en revanche, sont des noms de personnes et désignent les ancêtres des principales familles des Bené-Caleb. Du reste, les noms géographiques eux-mêmes désignent, dans la pensée de l'auteur, également le nom d'un ancêtre, mais d'un ancêtre de second rang. Ainsi Mésa, père de Ziph, signifie que les habitants de Ziph se reconnaissaient un ancêtre du nom de Ziph, mais portaient en fait le nom d'un ancêtre plus reculé, nommé Mésa.Nos versets 42 à 49 distinguent trois groupes des Bené-Caleb :
Aux trois familles issues d'Epha l'auteur en ajoute six issues de Jadaï, personne absolument inconnue qui se rattachait à Caleb nous ne savons comment. Parmi les fils de Jadaï on retrouve le nom d'Epha, mais ce nom désigne sans doute une autre personne que celle du verset 46. Schaaph se retrouve dans le troisième groupe.
Les familles issues des concubines étaient sans doute des branches secondaires des Bené-Caleb. On peut se demander si le nom de la mère leur servait de nom patronymique commun (comparez l'expression Bené-Kétura). Quant à la mention d'Acsa, fille de Caleb, elle est destinée à rappeler Josué 15.13-19 et l'établissement de Kéniziens de la famille de Caleb à Kirjath-Sépher ou Débir.
