Deu 1:36 | NETfull | STEP | The exception is Caleb son of Jephunneh; he will see it and I will give him and his descendants the territory on which he has walked, because he has wholeheartedly followed me.”

Deuteronomy 1:36

36 The exception is Caleb son of Jephunneh; ^{▼▼ Caleb had, with Joshua, brought back to Israel a minority report from Canaan urging a conquest of the land, for he was confident of the Lord’s power (Num 13:6, 8, 16, 30; 14:30, 38).} he will see it and I will give him and his descendants the territory on which he has walked, because he has wholeheartedly followed me.” ^{▼▼ Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun (“me”) has been employed in the translation, since it sounds strange to an English reader for the Lord to speak about himself in third person.}
