What Does Joshua 15:49 Mean?

The roll adds Dannah and Kiriath-sannah, which the writer identifies as Debir, the city Caleb and Othniel had taken earlier in the chapter. The naming ties the formal list back to the narrative just told.

The town won by Othniel's courage now takes its place in the ordered inheritance. What faith first seized, the record then confirms as a lasting possession. The victories God grants are not fleeting but are written into the abiding gift He gives His people.
