“But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.”
But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it' — Caleb's exception demonstrates that even amidst communal judgment, individual faith is recognized and rewarded. The phrase 'different spirit' (ruach acheret) suggests that faith is a spiritual capacity, a willingness to trust where others fear.
