Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD — Caleb and Joshua are excepted from the oath because they alone demonstrated complete faithfulness, giving a good report of the land and trusting the LORD's promise. They become the models of covenant loyalty that Reuben and Gad are implicitly being challenged to emulate.
