21So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, toward Lebo-hamath. 22They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, dwelled. It had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.
Who was Anak?
Anak is the son of Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim.
Joshua 14:15 (Hebron used to be called Kiriath-arba, after Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim.) Then the land had rest from war.
The Anakims were men of great size whom Caleb had driven out from Hebron.
Joshua 15: 13According to the LORD’s command to him, Joshua gave Caleb son of Jephunneh a portion among the sons of Judah—Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron. (Arba was the forefather of Anak.) 14And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak—the descendants of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
Sneak peak!
Numbers 13:33 We even saw giants (Nephilim) there, the descendants of Anak. Next to them we felt like grasshoppers, and that’s what they thought, too!”
Giants!
How do you face your giants?
Do you rely on the Lord or do you run?
Blessings
