Deuteronomy 2:23 (KJV)
Commentary on Deuteronomy 2:23
The note about the Avims and Caphtorims describes yet another historical displacement—'the Caphtorims, which came forth out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.' This reference to non-Israelite conquest (Philistines from Crete/Caphtor displacing Avvites) shows God's sovereignty extends even to peoples outside the covenant narrative. All human history unfolds under divine providence, not just Israel's story.
