because they were faithful and believed God would allow them to occupy the land when they were sent in by Moses to spy out the land; the other spies said it wasn't possible and were afraid of the people inhabiting the land.
God allowed Moses to die before the Jews reached the promised land, though they were within sight of it. This was Moses' punishment for lacking trust in God. God told him to strike a rock with his staff so that drinking water would come out. Moses did so, but water did not issue immediately, so Moses struck it again. This displayed a lack of trust, and God was angry.
According to the Bible, Joshua was the first to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land after Moses died.

Joshua and Caleb
Joshua and Caleb were the only two of the adults who left Egypt to enter the Promised Land. There were many more who entered the land with them.
No, according to the Bible, Moses' wife, Zipporah, did not enter the Promised Land. Moses himself was not allowed to enter because he disobeyed God's command.
As the Israelites left Egypt on their exodus, Joshua was one of the twelve spies sent by Moses to reconnoiter the land of Canaan. Joshua and Caleb were the only two who had confidence that God would give Israel the land of Canaan despite its formidable inhabitants. Because of their faith God allowed Joshua and Caleb to enter the promised land, but he vowed that the others of Joshua's generation would die in the wilderness. God instructed Moses to designate Joshua as his successor. Joshua led the Israelites into the promised land. The book of Joshua recounts his victories at Jericho, Ai, and other places.
Joshua and Caleb, both faithful spies during the first reconnaissance of Canaan were the only two persons of their generationto enter the Promised Land when the conquest began.
Caleb and Joshua
Caleb (ben Yefuneh).These were the only two adult males who saw both Egypt and the Promised Land. All the restof the generation of the Exodus was replaced by attrition in the wilderness.
Here the two people only from Egypt to see the promised land were Joshua and Moses. Please kindly note Even though Moses was not allowed to set his foot in the promised land of Canaan , he was shown the land by God from a far distance.
In Numbers 13:25-33 we read that 10 of the 12 spies sent up to the land by Moses reported that the people there were too strong for the Israelites to overcome.In Numbers Chapter 14 we read that nearly all the people were frightened and rebelled. Joshua and Caleb had confidence that they could do it with God's help. As a consequence, in Numbers 13:29-30 God told them that none of those then present from the age of 20 and upwards would enter into the promised land except Joshua and Caleb and that they would wander in the wilderness for 40 years. From this we can calculate that except for Joshua and Caleb, all the Israelites who entered the promised land were no older than 59.
No, Kaleb (Caleb) is a person in the Bible. He was one of the twelve spies sent to scout out the land of Canaan. Caleb displayed faith and courage, and as a result, he and Joshua were the only two spies who were allowed to enter the Promised Land.
