Per´izzite, a Canaanitish tribe inhabiting the mountainous region which they eventually yielded to Ephraim and Judah (;; ). They were kindred to the Canaanites strictly so called (; ): sometimes Canaanites and Perizzites are put for all the other tribes of Canaan (; ); while in other places the Perizzites are enumerated with various other tribes of the same stock (;;; , etc.). A residue of the Perizzites still remained in the time of Solomon, and were by him subjected to bond-service ().
