There were two early Hebrew kingdoms, Israel in the north, and Judah in the south. The Book of Joshua is the epic story of the conquest of Canaan, told from the viewpoint of Israel. In this story, Caleb and the people of Judah only played a minor role. Chapter 1 of the Book of Judges is the story of the conquest of Canaan told from the viewpoint of the people of Judah, who later became known as the Jews, although this story is in a much briefer form than the Book of Joshua. In this account, the tribe of Judah was given the lead role in the conquest, and the legendary military hero Caleb was the leader of the conquest. So, the tribe of Judah, the ancestors of the Jewish people, was portrayed as playing a minor role in the Book of Joshua.
