1 Chronicles 2:44
42 The sons of Caleb the brother of Jerahmeel: Mesha his firstborn, who was the father of Ziph, and Mareshah his second son, who was the father of Hebron.
43 The sons of Hebron: Korah, Tappuah, Rekem, and Shema.
Shema was the father of Raham the father of Jorkeam, and Rekem was the father of Shammai.
45 The son of Shammai was Maon, and Maon was the father of Beth-zur.
46 Caleb’s concubine Ephah was the mother of Haran, Moza, and Gazez. Haran was the father of Gazez.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
