“ Listen, O Israel! Today you are about to cross the Jordan River to take over the land belonging to nations much greater and more powerful than you. They live in cities with walls that reach to the sky!The people are strong and tall— descendants of the famous Anakite giants. You’ve heard the saying,‘ Who can stand up to the Anakites?’

Where can we go? Our brothers have demoralized us with their report. They tell us,“ The people of the land are taller and more powerful than we are, and their towns are large, with walls rising high into the sky! We even saw giants there— the descendants of Anak!”’

We even saw giants there, the descendants of Anak. Next to them we felt like grasshoppers, and that’s what they thought, too!”

( A race of giants called the Emites had once lived in the area of Ar. They were as strong and numerous and tall as the Anakites, another race of giants.Both the Emites and the Anakites are also known as the Rephaites, though the Moabites call them Emites.

Caleb drove out the three groups of Anakites— the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the sons of Anak.

These towns were all fortified with high walls and barred gates. We also took many unwalled villages at the same time.

None of the descendants of Anak were left in all the land of Israel, though some still remained in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod.

They were also as strong and numerous and tall as the Anakites. But the Lord destroyed them so the Ammonites could occupy their land.

Going north, they passed through the Negev and arrived at Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai— all descendants of Anak— lived.( The ancient town of Hebron was founded seven years before the Egyptian city of Zoan.)When they came to the valley of Eshcol, they cut down a branch with a single cluster of grapes so large that it took two of them to carry it on a pole between them! They also brought back samples of the pomegranates and figs.

The town of Hebron was given to Caleb as Moses had promised. And Caleb drove out the people living there, who were descendants of the three sons of Anak.
