Their cities Avvim The name "Avvim" refers to a location within the territory allotted to the tribe of Benjamin. The Hebrew root of "Avvim" is "עַוִּים" (Avvim), which can be associated with ruins or desolation. Historically, the Avvim were a people mentioned earlier in the Bible, specifically in Deuteronomy 2:23, as inhabitants of villages in the region of Gaza before being displaced by the Caphtorim. This connection to ancient peoples and their displacement highlights the ongoing theme of God's sovereignty and the fulfillment of His promises to Israel. The mention of Avvim in Joshua 18:23 serves as a reminder of the continuity of God's plan and the historical depth of the land's occupation. Parah Ophrah Parallel Commentaries ...
