How many years did Canaan oppress Israel?
According to the Book of Joshua, the Israelites conquered the entire land of the Canaanites and in doing so killed every person they found in the land. In spite of this, the Canaanites survived and according to the Book of Judges were soon, miraculously, able to oppress the Israelites. The period of the Judges is given in the Bible as 410 years, although in later years the main threat came from the Philistines and there were long periods of peace.However, historians and biblical scholars say there was no military conquest of Canaan and that the Israelites were themselves rural Canaanites who left the region of the rich coastal cities and settled peacefully in the hitherto sparsely populated hinterland. A glorious but legendary history evolved centuries later, telling of conquests under Joshua and of subsequent trials and oppression, with the Israelite God YHWH providing salvation when the Israelites were prepared to obey and worship him. Thus, these stories of oppression by the Canaanites were, in large part, legendary.
