Caleb was the son of Jephunneh, Kenizzites. One of the only 2 survivors to see the promised land from the original peoples of the Exodus. The other being Joshua.

He is also the only gentile convert or non Israelite to receive part of the Promised Land as an inheritance. The Hebron mountain area.

Was in recognition for his faithfulness to follow the one True God and for his honesty reguarding what he had seen in The Promised Land along with Joshua.

How many people are named in bible as Caleb?

Two: 1. Caleb, son of Hezron, brother of Jerahmeel and great-grandson of Judah and Tamar (1Ch 2:3-5, 18); also called Chelubai (1Ch 2:9). 2. Caleb, son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite of the tribe of Judah, uncle of Othniel, and likely a descendant of No. 1. Caleb was one of the 12 spies sent out by Moses on a 40-day preview of the land of Canaan, and upon returning, Caleb together with Joshua stood up against the opposition of all the others to give a favorable report. Achsah is listed as the daughter of "Caleb the brother of Jerahmeel" (No. 1 above) who lived about a century and a half before "Caleb the son of Jephunneh." (1Ch 2:42, 49) Some commentators say there was only one Caleb. But the great lapse of time between Judah's grandson Hezron and the settlement of Canaan precludes such a conclusion.

Did Hur have a son named Caleb?

It's the other way around. Caleb (of Numbers ch.13-14) was the father of Hur (named in Exodus ch.31). This is based upon 1 Chronicles 2:18-20, according to ancient tradition (Talmud, Sanhedrin 69b).However, Hur the son of Caleb may have had a son named Caleb. This is one of two possible explanations of 1 Chronicles 2:50 (Rashi commentary, ibid).
