Who this is

Beth-gader ("house of the wall") appears in the genealogy of Caleb in 1 Chronicles 2:51, listed as though it were a descendant of Hareph. As with several other names in this same list, it almost certainly denotes a town founded or settled by the clan rather than an individual person, a common feature of Chronicles' tribal genealogies. Its location has not been identified.
