Numbers 13:22 - They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, lived. (Hebron had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
I wonder why Moses mentions this fact. Why does he choose to compare these two cities? How did he know when Hebron was built? How had he heard about it? Why had he heard about it? Was it famous because the giant descendants of Anak -- Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai -- lived there? Was that the first thing you thought of when Hebron was mentioned?
I'm curious. Could you please tell me what brought you to this page by mentioning it in a comment? I won't publish the comment, if you ask me not to.
