Hastings
Very little is known of this people, whose name, though occurring several times in OT in the list of Can. tribes (Ge 10:16; 15:21; De 7:1 [and De 20:17 in Sam. and Septuagint, Jos 3:10; 24:11; 1Ch 1:14; Ne 9:8), affords no indication of their position, or to what branch of the Canaanites they belonged, except in two instances, namely, Ge 10:16, where the 'Girgashite' is given as the name of the fifth son of Canaan; and Jos 24:11, where the Girgashites would seem to have inhabited the tract on the west of Jordan, the Israelites having been obliged to cross over that river in order to fight the men of Jericho, among whom were the Girgashites.
