Context — Caleb’s Portion and Conquest
14And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15From there he marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).
16And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”
17So Othniel son of Caleb’s brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage. 18One 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

Joshua 15:16 Summary
[Caleb is offering a great reward to the man who can capture the city of Kiriath-sepher - his daughter Acsah in marriage. This shows how much faith Caleb has in God's power and promise to give the land to the Israelites, as seen in Joshua 1:3. Caleb's offer is a challenge to the men to be brave and trust God, just like he is, and it reflects the cultural practices of the time, such as those seen in Exodus 22:16-17. By trusting God and taking risks, we can see great things happen, just like Caleb did, and fulfill God's plans for our lives, as encouraged in Deuteronomy 31:6-7.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of Caleb offering his daughter Acsah in marriage to the man who captures Kiriath-sepher?
Caleb's offer is a testament to his faith in God's promise to give the land to the Israelites, as seen in Joshua 1:3, and his desire to see the city conquered and brought under God's rule, as mentioned in Deuteronomy 1:39.
Why did Caleb choose to offer his daughter as a reward for capturing the city?
Caleb's decision to offer Acsah as a reward may have been motivated by his desire to form alliances and secure the loyalty of the tribe, as well as to provide an incentive for the bravery and conquest of the city, reflecting the cultural practices of the time, such as those seen in Exodus 22:16-17.
What can we learn from Caleb's leadership and faith in this verse?
Caleb's leadership and faith demonstrate his trust in God's power and provision, as seen in Joshua 14:12, and his willingness to take risks and challenge others to do the same, inspiring us to have bold faith and confidence in God's promises, as encouraged in Hebrews 11:6.
How does this verse relate to the broader context of the Israelites' conquest of Canaan?
This verse is part of the larger narrative of the Israelites' conquest of Canaan, as described in the book of Joshua, and highlights the importance of faith, courage, and obedience in fulfilling God's plans, as emphasized in Deuteronomy 31:6-7 and Joshua 1:6-9.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I need to trust God's power and provision, just like Caleb did?
- How can I demonstrate bold faith and confidence in God's promises, like Caleb's offer to give his daughter in marriage to the man who captures Kiriath-sepher?
- What are some risks or challenges that I need to take on, trusting that God will provide and guide me, just as Caleb trusted God to give the city to the Israelites?
- In what ways can I inspire and encourage others to have faith and confidence in God's power and promises, just as Caleb's leadership inspired the tribe?

And Caleb said, he that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it,.... Which he ordered to be proclaimed through the army that was under his command; and which was done not so much on the account of the
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Joshua 15:16
And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife. He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher - or Kirjath-sannah (Joshua 15:9), afterward Debir.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Joshua 15:16
Which is to be understood with some conditions, as, if he were one who could marry her by God’ s law; for every promise contrary to that is void; and if she were willing; for though parents had a great power over their children, they could not force them to marry any person against their own wills. He might otherwise be an unfit and unworthy person: but this was no ordinary motion propounded to the imitation of others, but a Divine impulse, that Othniel’ s valour might be more manifest, and so the way prepared for his future government of the people, .
Trapp's Commentary on Joshua 15:16
Joshua 15:16 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.Ver. 16. To him will I give Achsah my daughter.] Yet with her consent, who as she was not to be forced, so she might not refuse without reason, and say - “ Non amo te Sabidi, nec possum dicere quare. ” - Martial.
Ellicott's Commentary on Joshua 15:16
(13-19) And unto Caleb . . . This paragraph occurs also in Judges 1:10-15, with some slight variations. Which is its original place? In Judges it is connected with the continuation of the conquest of Canaan by the tribe of Judah after Joshua’s death, and there we read they slew (literally, smote) Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai. If this is the death, and not merely the defeat of the Anakim (the Hebrew word is not absolutely decisive), we have two stages in the conquest of Hebron described—viz., (l) the expulsion of the Anakim sufficiently for Caleb to occupy the place; and (2) their final defeat and death. It seems hardly possible to make the narrative in Judges 1 a mere repetition of an earlier story, because it is presented as a part of that which happened after Joshua’s death. It would seem, then, that the entire conquest of the Anakim was not effected at once, but begun by Caleb and Joshua in Joshua’s lifetime, and completed by the tribe of Judah, under the leadership of Caleb, after Joshua’s death. It is remarkable that Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai are mentioned as apparently living when the twelve spies went up from Kadesh-barnea (Numbers 13:22), forty years before. But it has been thought that the three names were the names of three clans of the Anakim. (See Notes on Judges 1:10.) Upon the whole, it seems most reasonable to conclude that the proceedings by which Caleb secured his inheritance, and fulfilled the promise of Jos 14:12, have been recorded here for the sake of completeness, though not necessarily belonging to this time.
(15) Kirjath-sepher.—“City of books.” (17) Othniel the son of Kenaz.—Comp. Judges 3:9. (19) A south land—i.e., land in the Negeb: “a series of rolling hills clad with scanty herbage here and there.” Conder does not identify Debir, but others have taken it to be identical with Dewir-ban, about three miles west of Hebron. The upper springs, and the nether springs—i.e., the upper and lower “bubblings,” or pools of a rivulet in a valley among the hills in this neighbourhood.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Joshua 15:16
Verse 16. Will I give Achsah my daughter] In ancient times fathers assumed an absolute right over their children, especially in disposing of them in marriage; and it was customary for a king or great man to promise his daughter in marriage to him who should take a city, kill an enemy, c. So Saul promised his daughter in marriage to him who should kill Goliath, 1 Samuel 17:25 and Caleb offers his on this occasion to him who should take Kirjath-sepher. Profane writers furnish many similar examples.
Cambridge Bible on Joshua 15:16
16. to him will I give Achsah my daughter] So Saul promised to the victor over Goliath to “give him his daughter” (1 Samuel 17:25), and undertook if David was valiant for him to give him to wife his elder daughter Merab (1 Samuel 18:17).
Whedon's Commentary on Joshua 15:16
16. Caleb said — The veteran leader finding Debir, perhaps after his previous conquests, a more difficult fortress, arouses his warriors with the promise of a prize.
