Genesis Chapter 10 The people sure were interested in land, cities and as Babel, great projects from even when there could have only been 4,000 able bodied men.
So Abraham and his family after him were pligrims and have no land of their own . Abraham age 75, is given the Promised Land covenant year 2083. Gen.47:9.11.28; Joseph is governor of Egypt and they have it made as long as he is alive Gen.42:6;
Moses Exo.7:7; 12:40,41 age 80, 430 years after Gal.3:1-18; Abraham and there are half million Promised Land heirs that are feed mana from heaven until in 40 years they are in their own land Josh.5:6,10,
NOW THEY CAN HAVE A NORMAL GARDEN. The Gentiles did not now God and did
not care for humankind much less the animals, they were land pirates as in the case of Lot being taken and Abraham had to escue him.
Is there salvation for then, does the world want salvation for them. WILL THE FIRSTFRUITS OF JESUS WANT SALVATION FOR THE WHOLE WORLD BORN IN SIN FROM ADAM?
1Cor.15:22-28; All will see everything. Acts 24:15; BIBLE.

Yes, God told Joshua to destroy all the Canaanites, but then said not to marry the women! What women? Weren't they to have been destroyed?
Archaeological evidence doesn't show any large scale battle at that time. Perhaps Moses "argued" with God like Abraham did at Sodom and Gomorrah, but this time God relented. Archaeological evidence shows they assimilated.

the latest archaeology of that area seems to suggest that that the Hebrews were the rural/highland Canaanites who had a poor relationship with the urban Canaanites. the Hebrews probably coalesced into a people after the destruction of the Canaanite urban civilisation by the sea people. as Elohim was a Canaanite word i expect they knew all about Yahweh.

I always thought God was a little harsh during the Old Testament. But those people were evil. I wonder why they didn't have Jewish missionaries back then though. It was really after Jesus that things started to revive. I'm still a hardcore Christian.

Yes - the people knew who the isrealites were, and their reputation on God - If they knew what God did for them to get out of Egypt, they knew god.
About the same information you have - Do youy worship God, You have your warning

This fact has been used by some critics as a means for depicting the Hebrew Scriptures, or “Old Testament,” as imbued with a spirit of cruelty and wanton slaughter. The issue involved, however, is clearly that of whether God’s sovereignty over the earth and its inhabitants is acknowledged or not. He had deeded over the right of tenure of the land of Canaan to the ‘seed of Abraham,’ doing so by an oath-bound covenant. (Ge 12:5-7; 15:17-21; compare De 32:8; Ac 17:26.) But more than a mere eviction or dispossessing of the existing tenants of that land was purposed by God. His right to act as “Judge of all the earth” (Ge 18:25) and to decree the sentence of capital punishment upon those found meriting it, as well as his right to implement and enforce the execution of such decree, was also involved.
The justness of God’s prophetic curse on Canaan found full confirmation in the conditions that had developed in Canaan by the time of the Israelite conquest. Jehovah had allowed 400 years from Abraham’s time for the ‘error of the Amorites to come to completion.’ (Ge 15:16)
The fact that Esau’s Hittite wives were “a source of bitterness of spirit to Isaac and Rebekah” to the extent that Rebekah had ‘come to abhor her life because of them’ is certainly an indication of the badness already manifest among the Canaanites. (Ge 26:34, 35; 27:46)
Shechem was the son of a Caananite chieftain, and the Bible says he was the “most honorable of the whole house of his father,” but he “took [Dinah] and lay down with her and violated her.” (Gen. 34:1, 2, 19)
During the centuries that followed, the land of Canaan became saturated with detestable practices of idolatry, immorality, and bloodshed. The Canaanite religion was extraordinarily base and degraded, their “sacred poles” evidently being phallic symbols, and many of the rites at their “high places” involving gross sexual excesses and depravity. (Ex 23:24; 34:12, 13; Nu 33:52; De 7:5) Incest, sodomy, and bestiality were part of ‘the way of the land of Canaan’ that made the land unclean and for which error it was due to “vomit its inhabitants out.” (Le 18:2-25) Magic, spellbinding, spiritism, and sacrifice of their children by fire were also among the Canaanites’ detestable practices.—De 18:9-12.
The Canaanites were not ignorant of the powerful evidence that Israel was God’s chosen people and instrument. (Jos 2:9-21, 24; 9:24-27) However, with the exception of Rahab and her family and the cities of the Gibeonites, those who came in for destruction neither sought mercy nor availed themselves of the opportunity to flee, but instead they chose to harden themselves in rebellion against Jehovah. He did not force them to bend and give in to his expressed will but, rather, “let their hearts become stubborn so as to declare war against Israel, in order that he might devote them to destruction, that they might come to have no favorable consideration, but in order that he might annihilate them” in execution of his judgment against them.—Jos 11:19, 20
Though so many of the Canaanites survived the major conquest and resisted subjugation, it could still be said that “Jehovah gave Israel all the land that he had sworn to give to their forefathers,” that he had given them “rest all around,” and that “not a promise failed out of all the good promise that Jehovah had made to the house of Israel; it all came true.” (Jos 21:43-45)
