3:1 The remaining kingdoms in Kena’an
3 The following are the kingdoms which Yahweh allowed to remain so as to test the newer generations of Yisrael (Israel) who hadn’t experienced the battles in Kena’an (Canaan) 2 (if only for the sake of teaching warfare to those generations who hadn’t experienced it): 3 the five Pelishti rulers and the Kena’anim (Canaanites), the Tsidonim (Sidonians), the Hivim that live on Mt. Levanon between Mt. Ba’al-Hermon and Levo-Hamat.[fn] 4 They were left to test Yisrael to find out if they would obey Yahweh’s instructions that had been given through Mosheh (Moses) to their ancestors, 5 and so the Israelis lived among the Kena’anim, the Hitim, the Amorim, the Perizim, the Hivim, and the Yevusim. 6 They took their daughters as wives, and gave their own daughters to be married to their sons, and they worshipped their gods.
3:3 Or, ‘the entrance to Hamat’.
