Chelub appears as two individuals in Chronicles. The name may be related to Caleb, and some scholars suggest textual connections between these names in the genealogical records. One Chelub is listed in Judah's genealogy (1 Chronicles 4:11), possibly connected to Caleb ben Hezron. The other is identified as father of Ezri, who oversaw David's field workers (1 Chronicles 27:26). The name's appearance in agricultural and administrative contexts may reflect family occupation or land holdings.
