And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
The Hittites. The chief or general body of the Hittite tribe appear to have occupied the district extending from the Lake of Tiberius westward to the Mediterranean, while some branches of them were settled in the south (Genesis 23:1-20; Genesis 26:34-35; Genesis 27:46).
The Perizzites. The Perizzites are always mentioned along with the Canaanites in formulas respecting the promise. They were a rural population, similar to the Fellahs of Egypt, dwelling in open unwalled villages. They are described as located in various parts of the land, as in the south (Judges 1:4-5); in the north, as far as the plain of Esdraelon (Genesis 13:7; Genesis 34:30); and westward in the wood country about Carmel (Joshua 17:15-18).
The Rephaims. They were a numerous and powerful race, settled in the regions east of the Jordan, and in various districts of Palestine Proper.
