Definitions for Deuteronomy 7:1
Clarke's Deuteronomy 7:1 Bible Commentary
Seven nations greater and mightier than thou - In several places of the Hebrew text, each of these seven nations is not enumerated, some one or other being left out, which the Septuagint in general supply. How these nations were distributed over the land of Canaan previously to the entering in of the Israelites, the reader may see in the note on Joshua 3:10 (note).

Wesley's Deuteronomy 7:1 Bible Commentary
7:1 Seven nations - There were ten in Genesis 15:19 - 21. But this being some hundreds of years after, it is not strange if three of them were either destroyed by foreign or domestick wars, or by cohabitation and marriage united with, and swallowed up in the rest.
