'Past' in the Bible

(The Emim dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall as the Anakim.

And in Seir dwelt the Horites in times past; and the children of Esau dispossessed them, and destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did to the land of their possession, which Jehovah gave to them.)

(That also is reckoned a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in time past, and the Ammonites call them Zamzummim;

For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man on the earth, and from one end of the heavens to the other end of the heavens, whether there hath been anything as this great thing is, or if anything hath been heard like it?
