Context — The Capture of Jerusalem and Hebron
10Judah also marched against the Canaanites who were living in Hebron (formerly known as Kiriath-arba), and they struck down Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
11From there they marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).
12And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”
13So Othniel son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage. 14One day Acsah came to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”Cross References

Judges 1:12 Summary
Judges 1:12 is about Caleb offering a reward to the man who can capture the city of Kiriath-sepher, which was a difficult task. He promises to give his daughter Acsah in marriage to the man who can do it, which was a big deal in those days. This shows that Caleb was a brave and trusting leader who was willing to take risks and challenge others to do the same, just like God challenges us to trust Him in Proverbs 3:5-6. It also reminds us that God often uses rewards and challenges to motivate us to be brave and trust Him, as seen in Hebrews 11:6.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of Kiriath-sepher in Judges 1:12?
Kiriath-sepher, also known as Debir, was a city in Canaan that the Israelites were attempting to conquer, as seen in Judges 1:11, and Caleb is offering a reward to the man who can capture it, similar to the way God rewarded the Israelites for their obedience in Deuteronomy 1:8.
Why is Caleb offering his daughter Acsah in marriage as a reward?
In ancient Israelite culture, the offering of a daughter in marriage was a sign of great honor and reward, as seen in the story of Isaac and Rebekah in Genesis 24:1-67, and Caleb is using this as an incentive to motivate the Israelites to capture the city.
What can we learn from Caleb's leadership in this verse?
Caleb's leadership in Judges 1:12 demonstrates his trust in God's promises, as seen in Joshua 14:12, and his willingness to take risks and challenge others to do the same, which is an important principle for Christian leaders today, as encouraged in 1 Timothy 4:12.
How does this verse relate to the broader story of the Israelites in Canaan?
Judges 1:12 is part of the larger narrative of the Israelites' conquest of Canaan, as described in Joshua 1:1-12, and it highlights the ongoing challenges and battles they faced as they sought to claim the land God had promised them, as seen in Exodus 23:20-33.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can demonstrate courage and faith like Caleb in my own life, and what rewards might God have in store for me?
- How can I use my resources and influence to motivate others to take risks and trust God, like Caleb did with his offer of Acsah in marriage?
- What are some 'Kiriath-sephers' in my life that God is calling me to conquer, and what rewards might He have in store for me if I am faithful?
- How can I balance my desire for reward and recognition with a humble and surrendered heart, like Caleb's, and what does 1 Corinthians 4:2 say about being faithful stewards?
Gill's Exposition on Judges 1:12
And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife. [See comments on Joshua 15:16].

Trapp's Commentary on Judges 1:12
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Ver. 12. These are spots] Or rocks, or muddy holes, that harpy-like not only devour, but defile all that they touch, σπιλαδες, παρατοσπαντηνελην, a trahendo lutum. In your feasts of charity] See these described by Tertullian (Advers. Genres, c. 39). When they feast with you] Thrusting themselves into your company, whether invited or not; sin having wended an impudence in their faces. Feeding themselves] As fatted cattle fitted for the slaughter. Without fear] Of being ensnared by the creatures, Proverbs 23:2. Clouds they are] Light, and constant only in their inconstancy. The philosopher saith, Insalubre admodum caelum est quod pluviam promittit non, demittit, That is an unwholesome air that promiseth rain, but performs it not. It is ill conversing with these waterless clouds.
Twice dead] Killed with death, Revelation 2:23. Such as for whom hell gapeth. Plucked up by the root] Trees that are not for fruit are for the fire. Gr. and Lat. Myth.

Ellicott's Commentary on Judges 1:12
(12) And Caleb said.—See Joshua 15:16. Caleb was a “Kenizzite,” which seems to imply that he was descended from Kenaz, a grandson of Esau (Genesis 36:11). In Numbers 13:6 he is mentioned as being a prince (nasi, or chief, rosh) of the tribe of Judah. He was certainly affiliated to that tribe; but if the name “Caleb” means “dog,” it would seem a very unlikely name for a pure Jew, for I cannot think that the effort to trace a sort of totem system (or naming of tribes from animals) among the ancient Jews (Journ. of Philology, June, 1880) is successful. His father’s name. Je-phunneh, is of uncertain derivation. Fürst and Meier derive Caleb from a root meaning “valiant;” but the peculiarity of the expressions used respecting him in Joshua 15:13; Joshua 14:14, together with certain marked names and features in the genealogies of his family, at least give some probability to the conjecture that he was of foreign origin. Will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.—Comp. 1 Samuel 17:25; 1 Samuel 18:17. So the Messenian hero Aristomenes gave a peasant woman, who had saved his life, in marriage to his son. This story shows the strength and importance of this fastness of the south, which is also proved by the fact that Caleb has to refer to his unbroken strength before he gains permission to win the region by the sword (Joshua 14:11).
