First, in plain English
They come almost every time in a list, paired with the Canaanites, as one of the peoples living in Canaan before Israel arrived.
Who this is
Perizzites are listed among the peoples inhabiting Canaan before Israel's conquest, almost always paired with the Canaanites in the recurring phrase describing the land's population. Unlike most of the other named peoples, they are not listed among Canaan's sons in Genesis 10, and their name may simply describe village or open country dwellers rather than a single ethnic clan.
