Biography

Moza was one of the sons of Caleb, the son of Hezron, by his concubine Ephah (1Ch.2.46). Caleb was one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to scout out Canaan (Num.13.6). Along with Joshua, he gave a good report and was permitted to enter the promised land (Num.14.30). No other details are given about Moza's life. He is not to be confused with the Benjamite Moza mentioned in the genealogies of Saul (1Ch.8.36-37, 9:42-43).
