²⁶ And the man went to ^(A)the land of the Hittites and built a city and called its name Luz. That is its name to this day.

Failure to Complete the Conquest

^27 (B)Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages, for the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that land. ²⁸ When Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not drive them out completely.
