The Philistines were survivors of the Sea Peoples after they were defeated and driven out Egypt.

“Sea People” - continuing to do their part to fill in the gaps...

Do we know who the Sea People were?

Or as the word "remnants" implies, they were survivors of the Minoan civilization destroyed on Crete and other Aegean islands by the tsunami which followed the Santorini eruption (ca. 1,500 BC). The "Sea Peoples" in Egypt may have been the same as well.

In the olden days, 1973 to be exact, my professor of Ancient Near Eastern History had no problem using the Old Testament as a class textbook. It's not unlike what the Saxon Chronicle are to the study of Middle Ages Britain, i.e. HISTORY. Only the most dedicated, stubborn, and obtuse atheists would be stupid enough to claim otherwise.
