(4) And Judah went up.--Under the leadership of Caleb (Joshua 14:6).

The Canaanites and the Perizzites.--See Genesis 13:7; Genesis 34:30. The former seem to have been lowlanders--"by the sea and by the coast of Jordan" (Numbers 13:29), "on the east and on the west" (Joshua 11:3; Joshua 17:16). The Perizzites were the mountain and forest tribes (Joshua 11:3; Joshua 17:15). Their antiquity and importance appear from the allusions to them in Genesis 13:7; Genesis 34:30; 1Kings 9:20; 2 Esdras 1:21. The name itself seems to imply "open villages" (1Samuel 6:18; Deuteronomy 3:5), and may imply that they were agriculturists. The name does not occur in the genealogy of nations in Genesis 10 . . .
