The Lineage of Hur

Ur belonged to the lineage of Hur, who was the son of Caleb and Ephrathah, and who was an important figure in the tribe of Judah.

19When Azubah died, Caleb married Ephrath, and she bore him Hur.
וַתָּ֖מָת עֲזוּבָ֑ה וַיִּֽקַּֽח־ל֤וֹ כָלֵב֙ אֶת־אֶפְרָ֔ת וַתֵּ֥לֶד ל֖וֹ אֶת־חֽוּר׃ ‬
20Hur fathered Uri, and Uri fathered Bezalel.

50These were the descendants of Caleb. The sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah: Shobal the father of Kiriath Jearim,

Connection to Bezalel

Through his father Hur, Ur is connected to Bezalel, the skilled craftsman who built the tabernacle, since Bezalel was also a son of Ur and a grandson of Hur.

1The LORD spoke to Moses and said:
וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃ ‬
2"See, I have called by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
רְאֵ֖ה קָרָ֣אתִֽי בְשֵׁ֑ם בְּצַלְאֵ֛ל בֶּן־אוּרִ֥י בֶן־ח֖וּר לְמַטֵּ֥ה יְהוּדָֽה׃ ‬
3and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, understanding, and knowledge in every kind of craft,
וָאֲמַלֵּ֥א אֹת֖וֹ ר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֑ים בְּחָכְמָ֛ה וּבִתְבוּנָ֥ה וּבְדַ֖עַת וּבְכָל־מְלָאכָֽה׃ ‬

Bezalel's Appointment as Craftsman

Bezalel, son of Uri and grandson of Hur of the tribe of Judah, was chosen by God and filled with wisdom and knowledge to lead the construction of the tabernacle.

30Then Moses said to the Israelites, "See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah,
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר מֹשֶׁה֙ אֶל־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל רְא֛וּ קָרָ֥א יְהוָ֖ה בְּשֵׁ֑ם בְּצַלְאֵ֛ל בֶּן־אוּרִ֥י בֶן־ח֖וּר לְמַטֵּ֥ה יְהוּדָֽה׃ ‬
31and has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, understanding, and knowledge in every kind of craft,
וַיְמַלֵּ֥א אֹת֖וֹ ר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֑ים בְּחָכְמָ֛ה בִּתְבוּנָ֥ה וּבְדַ֖עַת וּבְכָל־מְלָאכָֽה׃ ‬
32to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,
וְלַחְשֹׁ֖ב מַֽחַשָׁבֹ֑ת לַעֲשֹׂ֛ת בַּזָּהָ֥ב וּבַכֶּ֖סֶף וּבַנְּחֹֽשֶׁת׃ ‬
33to cut and set stones and to carve wood—to work in every kind of artistic craft.
וּבַחֲרֹ֥שֶׁת אֶ֛בֶן לְמַלֹּ֖את וּבַחֲרֹ֣שֶׁת עֵ֑ץ לַעֲשׂ֖וֹת בְּכָל־מְלֶ֥אכֶת מַחֲשָֽׁבֶת׃ ‬
34And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.
וּלְהוֹרֹ֖ת נָתַ֣ן בְּלִבּ֑וֹ ה֕וּא וְאָֽהֳלִיאָ֥ב בֶּן־אֲחִיסָמָ֖ךְ לְמַטֵּה־דָֽן׃ ‬
