Strong's Lexicon Chivvi: Hivite Original Word: חִוִּי Word Origin: Derived from חַוָּה (Chavvah), which means "tent village" or "life." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Chivvi" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper name specific to the Hebrew context. However, the Greek term Χετταῖοι (Hittites) is sometimes used in the Septuagint to refer to various Canaanite tribes, though it is not a direct translation. Usage: The term "Chivvi" refers to the Hivites, one of the Canaanite tribes mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. They are often listed among the inhabitants of the land of Canaan, which the Israelites were commanded to conquer and possess. The Hivites are depicted as a distinct ethnic group with their own cultural and religious practices, which were often at odds with the worship of Yahweh. Cultural and Historical Background: The Hivites were one of the seven nations inhabiting Canaan before the Israelite conquest. They are believed to have lived in the central highlands and northern regions of Canaan. The Hivites are mentioned in various ancient Near Eastern texts, indicating their presence and interactions with other cultures. Their name is thought to be related to a lifestyle associated with tent-dwelling or village life, suggesting a semi-nomadic or rural existence.
