Canaan - Fact Book

First, in plain English

The land promised to Abraham and his descendants, roughly modern Israel and the land around it. The conquest under Joshua is that promise, centuries old by then, being kept.

Who this is

Canaan was the land promised to Abraham and his descendants, roughly corresponding to modern Israel and the surrounding region, and the conquest of Canaan under Joshua is the fulfillment of that centuries-old promise. Canaan is also the name of Ham's son, cursed by Noah, and the Canaanite peoples descended from him are the nations Israel was commanded to dispossess.
