Caleb's Finest Hour
"So what was Caleb’s finest hour? Perhaps his speech at Kadesh-barnea, when he stood up to the entire Israelite congregation? Or maybe his choice of challenging the Hebron giants? I would suggest another possibility: Caleb’s finest “hour” was the 40 years in the wilderness. This was truly a heroic wait. If anyone had a right to complain, it was Caleb. Because of the mistakes of others, he was deprived of 40 years of life in the Promised Land, where he could enjoy milk and honey while sitting under his vine or his fig tree. He didn’t need all those years of extra training. He was ready to go. But rather than rushing off to conquer Canaan by himself, he stayed with the Lord and His faulty people."
