SCRIPTURE

"Amalek dwelleth in the land of the South: and the Hittite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, dwell in the hill-country; and the Canaanite dwelleth by the sea, and along by the side of the Jordan." — Numbers 13:29 (ASV)

The Amalekites - See Numbers 14:25 note.

The Canaanites - that is, those of the Phoenician race: the word is here used in its narrow sense: compare Genesis 10:15-18 note.
