  1. Okay, a rabbit trail may have revealed a funny point about the NRSV's textual history.

    #Genesis 10:14 = #1Chronicles 1:12 lists the peoples of Pathros, Kasluh, & Kaphtor, mentioning in passing that the Philistines came from Kasluhites.

    Oddly, #Jeremiah 47:4 and #Amos 9:7 identify the Philistines as coming from Kaphtor, not Kasluh.

    What's going on here? Dunno. Perhaps a marginal addition was incorporated into the main text in the wrong spot in Genesis.
