Amorite: emori (Hebrew) An Amorite; originally a mountaineer,
but finally a Canaanite people living in the land east and west of the
Jordan. Amorite (Hebrew ’emōrî, Egyptian Amar, Akkadian Amurrū (corresponding to Sumerian MAR.TU or Martu) refers to a Semitic people who occupied the middle Euphrates area from the second half of the third millennium BC and also appear in the Tanakh. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorites |
Ammonites: Descendants of Lot, generally regarded as relatives
of the Israelites. Ammon or Ammonites (עַמּוֹן "People", Standard Hebrew Ammon, Tiberian Hebrew Ammôn), also referred to in the Bible as the "children of Ammon," were a people of eastern Palestine who along with the Moabites traced their origin to Lot, the nephew of the patriarch Abraham, and were regarded as close relatives of the Israelites and Edomites. |
The dictionary does not say the Amorites are Ammonites! In verse 20 the Amorites refused passage and made war against Israel. And God delivered to Israel the victory. So Israel claimed the land by right of conquest and had it for three hundred years before the Ammonites claimed it.
