Rechah is not otherwise known, but the Vaticanus manuscript and the Lucian recension of the LXX read “Rechab.” In such a case the men of Rechah would be Rechabites. In ch. 2:55 the scribes of Jabez were “of the house of Rechab.” These Rechabites were descendants of Hur through Salma (ch. 2:50-55), and Hur was a son of Caleb (ch. 2:19). In such a case the Chelub of v. 11 is possibly a namesake of Caleb—“Chelubai” of ch. 2:9—the son of Hezron.
