How many years did the Canaanites oppress Israel?
Answer 1There is no evidence ... historic, archaeological, or Biblical ...that the Canaanites ever oppressed Israel.Answer 2The Bible does note that there are stretches of time during which Canaanites or people from the surrounding nations (such as Edomites, Moabities, or Arameans) oppressed certain tribes in Israel, but this occurred intermittently and never over the entire Israelite territory. Furthermore, the nature of this oppression was markedly different between every oppressive tribe and oppressed Israelite tribe. Some confiscated material wealth while others raped and pillaged. However, the Judges period (according to the Bible) takes roughly 400 years of which around half of the time one tribe or another was being oppressed.
Why is Israel so small if the Promised Land is big?
AnswerThe apparent size of the Promised Land differs in various parts of the Bbile. However, if the Promised Land was the land of the Canaanites, then modern Israel is much larger. For example, the Canaanites did not occupy the Negev Desert, from which Exodus says the Israelites travelled on their way to the Promised Land. Nor did the land of the Canaanites include Philistia - the coastal strip and foothills north from the Egyptian border to approximately where Tel Aviv is today.Ancient Israel and Judah actually occupied a quite small area, based on the mountainous hinterland and the Jezreel Valley.
