“And king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel.”
And king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, heard of the coming of the children of Israel — the king of Arad (a Canaanite settlement in the Negev) learns of Israel's approach from the south. His awareness suggests that the conquest is beginning to be felt as a military threat to the indigenous Canaanite kingdoms.
