Was Caleb a foreigner, even though he represented the tribe of Judah (Numbers 13:6) and was one of the first judges of Israel (Judges 1)? In Numbers 32:12 and Joshua 14:14 we read that Caleb is the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite. And in Genesis 15:19 we read that the Kenizzites were some of the original inhabitants of the land promised to Abraham. Also, the name "Caleb" means "dog," a term used for foreigners (according to the BDB Hebrew lexicon).
