ADONAI said to Moshe,

17

"These are the names of the men who will take possession of the land for you: El'azar the cohen and Y'hoshua the son of Nun.

18

Also appoint one leader from each tribe to take possession of the land.

19

The names of these men are: from the tribe of Y'hudah, Kalev the son of Y'funeh;

20
