The Israelites settled Canaan through a combination of military conquest and gradual infiltration. According to biblical accounts, they entered the land under the leadership of Joshua after escaping slavery in Egypt, engaging in battles against various city-states and peoples.

The Israelites settled in Canaan after their exodus from Egypt, a journey led by Moses that lasted 40 years in the wilderness. Upon reaching Canaan, under the leadership of Joshua, they engaged in a series of military campaigns to conquer various city-states.

This period marked the establishment of Israelite society in Canaan, fulfilling their covenant promise of a homeland.
