Caleb: This was not Caleb the son of Jephunneh, but Caleb the son of Hezron, and therefore called the brother of Jerahmeel. See the parallel texts. 1 Chronicles 2:9, Chelubai, 1 Chronicles 2:18, 1 Chronicles 2:19, 1 Chronicles 2:24

his firstborn: Genesis 49:3, Exodus 4:22, Exodus 4:23, Romans 8:29, Hebrews 12:23

the father: i.e. the founder, Or, as the Targum renders, "the prince of the Ziphites;" for it was usual to call both the founder and the prince of a city its father.

Ziph: Joshua 15:24, 1 Samuel 23:19, 1 Samuel 26:1

the father of Hebron: 1 Chronicles 2:23, 1 Chronicles 2:24, 1 Chronicles 2:45, 1 Chronicles 2:49, 1 Chronicles 2:52, 1 Chronicles 8:29, Ezra 2:21-35, Nehemiah 7:25-38

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now the sons of Caleb the brother of Jerahmeel,.... Called Chelubai, 1 Chronicles 2:9 and is the same Caleb spoken of in 1 Chronicles 2:18 and his sons next reckoned were by a third wife, Azubah, Ephrath being dead, 1 Chronicles 2:19 and these sons were

Mesha his firstborn, which was the father of Ziph; who gave name to the city of Ziph; there were two of this name in the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:24 or this is the title of Mesha, governor of the city of Ziph; so the Targum calls him, prince of the Ziphites:

and the sons of Mareshah the father of Hebron; according to Kimchi and Ben Melech, the words are to be supplied thus, "and the sons of Ziph were Mareshah the father of Hebron"; which, though sometimes the name of a city in the tribe of Judah, is here the name of a man, from whom, perhaps, the city had its name, since Hebron is said to have sons in the next verse; Jarchi makes Mesha to be the prince of Ziph, and prince of the children of Mareshah, and prince of Hebron.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A third line of descent from Caleb, the son of Hezron, the issue probably of a different mother, perhaps Jerioth 1 Chronicles 2:18. The supposed omissions in this verse have been supplied as follows:

(1) “Mesha, the father of Ziph; and the sons of Ziph, Mareshah, the father of Hebron;” or

(2) “Mareshah, the father of Ziph; and the sons of Mareshah, the father of Ziph, Hebron.”

Ziph, like Jorkoam 1 Chronicles 2:44 and Beth-zur 1 Chronicles 2:45, is the name of a place where the respective chiefs (“fathers”) settled. Similarly Madmannah, Machbenah, and Gibea 1 Chronicles 2:49, Kirjath-jearim (Joshua 9:17 note), Bethlehem and Beth-gader (Jedur, 1 Chronicles 2:51) are unmistakeable names of places in the list, names which it is not probable were ever borne by persons.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 42. Now the sons of Caleb — This was not Caleb the son of Jephunneh, but Caleb the son of Hezron, 1 Chronicles 2:18; 1 Chronicles 2:50. But some think that Caleb the son of Hezron was the grandson of Caleb, son of Jephunneh; but this is probably fanciful.

The father of Ziph — "The prince of the Ziphites." - T.
