ACTS 13:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.”
He overthrew seven nations in Canaan and gave their land to his people as their inheritance — Paul summarizes the conquest narratives (Joshua), emphasizing God's gift (doreomai) of the land as inheritance. The seven nations represent the pagan opposition cleared by divine action, establishing the principle that God's purpose for his people supersedes human resistance. This scriptural review anchors Christian claims in proven divine action.
