(Redirected from Philistine)
Palestina or Philistines (/ˈfɪlɪstiːnz/, /ˈfɪlɪstaɪnz/, /fɪˈlɪstɪnz/, or /fɪˈlɪstiːnz/;[1] Hebrew: פְּלִשְׁתִּים, Plištim) were a people described in the Bible. During Judges, they were one of Israel's most dangerous enemies.[2] Biblical scholars have connected the Philistines to other biblical groups such as Caphtorim and the Cherethites and Pelethites. Both have been identified with Crete, and leading to the tradition of an Aegean origin.[3]
