Gill's Notes on the Bible
As he did to the children of Esau which dwelt in Seir,.... He did the like things for them as he did for the Ammonites:
when he destroyed the Horims from before them: which is repeated from Deuteronomy 2:12, other instances of the like kind being here recited:
and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead, even unto this day;
Deuteronomy 2:12- :.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Deuteronomy 2:20
Zamzummims - A giant race usually identified with the Zuzims of Genesis 14:5.

The Avims are no doubt identical with the Avites of Joshua 13:3, and were doubtless a scattered remnant of a people conquered by the Caphtorim (Genesis 10:14 note) and living in their “enclosures” in the neighborhood of Gerar. The word, which means “ruins,” seems itself expressive of their fallen state.
