It's the other way around. Caleb (of Numbers ch.13-14) was the father of Hur (named in Exodus ch.31). This is based upon 1 Chronicles 2:18-20, according to ancient tradition (Talmud, Sanhedrin 69b).However, Hur the son of Caleb may have had a son named Caleb. This is one of two possible explanations of 1 Chronicles 2:50 (Rashi commentary, ibid).

There are 5 different Hur's in the Bible...not showing that the two are not the same. 1.. A descendent of Judah. Son of Caleb and Ephrath...could be the same as #2. 2. Companion of Moses and Aaron. 3. A King of Midian 4. Father of Solomons food deputy 5. Father of Rephaiah , helped Nehemiah rebuild the Jerusalem wall.
The real flesh and blood son of Arrius had previously died. He gives Ben-Hur the family ring and honor that would have gone to his son, and adopts BenHur as a son.
Ben Hur is not a Biblical character. He is a fictional character created by the novelist Lew Wallace in 1880. The novel suggests Ben Hur lived and interacted at the same time as Christ, but the author's work is a story, not a historical account.
Caleb was the son of Yephunneh of the tribe of Judah - see Numbers 13:6.
Caleb Followill (Caleb), born January 14, 1982, is the singer/frontman for an Alternative Rock band named Kings of Leon.
Two: 1. Caleb, son of Hezron, brother of Jerahmeel and great-grandson of Judah and Tamar (1Ch 2:3-5, 18); also called Chelubai (1Ch 2:9). 2. Caleb, son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite of the tribe of Judah, uncle of Othniel, and likely a descendant of No. 1. Caleb was one of the 12 spies sent out by Moses on a 40-day preview of the land of Canaan, and upon returning, Caleb together with Joshua stood up against the opposition of all the others to give a favorable report. Achsah is listed as the daughter of "Caleb the brother of Jerahmeel" (No. 1 above) who lived about a century and a half before "Caleb the son of Jephunneh." (1Ch 2:42, 49) Some commentators say there was only one Caleb. But the great lapse of time between Judah's grandson Hezron and the settlement of Canaan precludes such a conclusion.

They were two of the twelve spies sent in Numbers ch.13 to check out the land of Canaan; and it was they, unlike the other spies, who gave a completely favorable report (ibid). Joshua, of the tribe of Ephraim, later went on to succeed Moses as leader (Numbers ch.27) and has one of the books of the Bible named after him. Caleb, according to tradition, was of the tribe of Judah, and married Miriam (the sister of Moses). Hur (Exodus ch.17) was Caleb's son; and Bezalel (Exodus ch.30) was a descendant of his. Caleb was one of the two people sent to spy in the city of Jericho in Joshua ch.2. Caleb and Joshua were men of faith, they were the only two men that came out of Egypt that God permitted to go into the promised land, except those that came out as children. Everyone else, including Moses, died in the wilderness. Deuteronomy 1:34:39
No, Kaleb is not a biblical figure. In the Bible, there is a figure named Caleb, but Kaleb is not a variant spelling or an alternative name for Caleb.
