Seven Nations

• Shemot 33:2 and 34:11 list the nations that Hashem will drive out from Canaan.  Notably, the Girgashites are missing from the list.  See The Nations of Canaan and the Girgashites, by Prof. Yoel Elitzur, for discussion of what happened to the Girgashites, based on Rabbinic as well as extrabiblical and archaeological sources.
