Judges 3:1-6

Judges 3:1-6 CSB

These are the nations the LORD left in order to test all those in Israel who had experienced none of the wars in Canaan.  This was to teach the future generations of the Israelites how to fight in battle, especially those who had not fought before. These nations included the five rulers  of the Philistines  and all of the Canaanites, the Sidonians,  and the Hivites  who lived in the Lebanese mountains from Mount Baal-hermon as far as the entrance to Hamath.  The LORD left them to test Israel, to determine if they would keep the LORD’s commands he had given their ancestors through Moses.  But they settled among the Canaanites, Hethites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. The Israelites took their daughters as wives for themselves, gave their own daughters to their sons, and worshiped their gods.
