Achsah

Achsah was the only daughter of Caleb ben Yefune. She was courageous and beautiful, and her name means "adorned" or "bursting the veil." When Caleb conquered the city of Debir, he promised to give Achsah to the man who would lead the attack. Othniel, Caleb's brother's son, was the one who led the attack, and so he won Achsah's hand in marriage. Achsah was a strong and independent woman. After she married Othniel, she asked for and received two springs of water from her father. These springs were located in the Negev, and they provided water for Achsah's family and for the people of Debir. Achsah was a great wife and mother, and she played an important role in the history of Israel. She was a courageous and strong woman who helped to shape the future of her country.
