Judges Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar dealt with Moabites, Ammonites and philistines...(Halley's)
The Moabites were descendants of Lot. The occupied the tableland east of the Dead Sea. Their god Chemosh, was worshiped by human sacrifice. They had many wars with Israel.
The Ammonites were also descendants of Lot. Their territory was next to Moab, beginning about 30 miles east of the Jordan. Their god, called Molech, was worshiped by the burning of little children. Moab and Ammon, the ancestors of these two nations, were the product of an incestuous relationship. (Gen. 19: 30-38).
The Amalekites were descendants of Esau.They were a nomadic tribe, centered mainly in the northern part pof the Sinai peninsula but roaming in wider circles, even into Judah and far to the east. They were the first to attack Israel after their departure from Egypt. Moses authorized their extinction (Exodus 17:8-16). They have disappeared from history.
Shamgar of whom little is known, saved Israel from the Philistines. The Philistines were descendants of Ham. They occupied the Coastal plain between modern Tel Aviv and Gaza, and they again oppressed Israel in Samson's day.
Gideon delivered Israel from these nations (peoples) Midianites, Amalekites, and Arabians
Midianites were nomadic descendants of Abraham and Keturah (Gen. 25:1-6) Their main center was in Arabia, just east of the Red Sea, but they roamed far and wide. Moses had live among them for forty years and married one of them (Exodus 2:15-21) Gradually they were absorbed into the Arabians.
The Arabians were descendants of Ishmael (Gen. 16). Arabia was the great peninsula (1,500 miles north and south, 800 east and west) that is today Saudi Arabia and Yemen. It was sparsely inhabited by wandering tribes.
