Ephah, Caleb’s concubine, bore Haran, and Moza, and Gazez; and Haran became the father of Gazez.
Ephah appears as both a man's name elsewhere and here as Caleb's concubine. She bore Haran, Moza (distinct from the Benjamite town of the same name), and Gazez; whether Gazez was Haran's son or Caleb's grandson remains uncertain, though Haran may have named his own son after his younger brother.
