Caleb's continuing physical vitality — 'As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, both to go up to the battle, and to go out and come in. Caleb's physical vigor at 85 is remarkable—he claims the same strength at 85 as at 40. This is presented not as supernatural enhancement but as his continued fitness for warfare. The phrase 'to go up to the battle, and to go out and come in' emphasizes his readiness for combat.
