The challenge to conquer Debir — And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife. Caleb offers his daughter Achsah as a reward for whoever conquers Debir. This is a form of ancient tribal incentive—granting kinship through marriage to the successful warrior. The public nature of the offer makes it a call to the strongest men of the tribe.
