Exodus 13:11

1819–1905
Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"And it shall be, when Jehovah shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, as he sware unto thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it thee," — Exodus 13:11 (ASV)

The land of the Canaanites. — Either their superior importance or their genealogical position (Genesis 10:15) caused the term “Canaanites” to be used inclusively of all the Palestinian nations. The land is always the land of Canaan (Genesis 11:31; Genesis 12:5; Genesis 13:12, and other similar passages).
