"The Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley ... God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines"
The English word "Palestine" originated from an ancient Greek word that referred specifically to the Philistine people of Gaza. "Palestine" and "Philistine" are merely different English pronunciations of the same original word for the territory of Gaza. No where in the actual historical record of the Holy Bible was the land of Israel ever called "Palestine" (see the Fact Finder question below).
Who were the real "Palestinians"? Consider carefully the genealogy of the "Palestinian" people.
According to the plainly-stated historical record, Mizraim was the Hebrew name given to Egypt and northeast Africa by the Israelites because of Mizraim's descendants there. Mizraim is rendered into English as "Egypt" (from the name that the ancient Greek empire gave to it, pronounced Aigyptos; see The Cleopatra Connection) over 600 times in the Holy Scriptures. Various translations use "Mizraim" or "Egypt" interchangeably, as shown in the example below.
"10:6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan." (Genesis 10:6 KJV)
"10:6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put and Canaan." (Genesis 10:6 RSV)
As documented in the verses above, the descendants of Mizrain were not Canaanites. Among the descendants of Mizraim / Egypt were, obviously, the Egyptians, but also the Philistines. The Egyptian and Philistine people were cousins from their common ancestor.
"1:11 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, 1:12 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (of whom came the Philistines,) and Caphthorim." (1 Chronicles 1:11-12 KJV)
King David had many experiences with the "Palestinian" people - beginning with his victory over the Palestinian warrior Goliath who had crossed the border into the land of Israel (see The Battle Of David And Goliath). David's often-pragmatic relationship with the Palestinians then continued through the civil war when David sought refuge in "Palestine" i.e. Gaza (see David The Philistine Warrior).
After the civil war, King David settled in the Jebusite city (it was never "Palestinian" i.e. the Philistines never claimed or occupied Jerusalem) of Jerusalem (see When Did Jerusalem Become An Israelite City?). It was not merely a matter of David conquering a foreign city; it was a matter of David being sent by the LORD (Who was and is Jesus Christ - see Genesis 1: In The Beginning Was The Word and The Kingdom Of The LORD God) to the city that was created by the LORD, for the purpose of the LORD, right from the beginning (see the complete series for the history and future of Jerusalem, beginning with A History Of Jerusalem: In The Beginning).
There was always peace between the Palestinians and Israel when everyone remained in their own God-given national territories (see The Boundary Law). When the Palestinians left Gaza and attacked Israel (e.g. "the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley"), there was war in which "God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines."
"14:1 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house. 14:2 And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.
14:3 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters. 14:4 Now these are the names of his children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, 14:5 And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet, 14:6 And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia, 14:7 And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
14:8 And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard of it, and went out against them. 14:9 And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim. 14:10 And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand?
And the LORD said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand. 14:11 So they came up to Baalperazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baalperazim. 14:12 And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.
14:13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley. 14:14 Therefore David enquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees. 14:15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines. 14:16 David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.
14:17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations." (1 Chronicles 14:1-17 KJV)
