Fausset's Bible Dictionary [1]

Son of Canaan, Ham's son; from whence sprung the Hittites, occupying the hill country of Judah near Hebron. But the race enlarged its borders so that they with the Amorites represent all Canaan ( Joshua 1:4;  Ezekiel 16:3, "thy father was an Amorite, thy mother an Hittite".) See  Genesis 23:3-20. Esau's marriage to one of the daughters of Heth "grieved the mind" of Isaac and Rebekah, for their morals were lax and their worship idolatrous ( Genesis 26:34-35;  Genesis 27:46). In Solomon's and in Joram's times there were independent Hittite kings ( 1 Kings 10:29;  2 Kings 7:6). In the Egyptian monuments they are called the Kheta, who made themselves masters of Syria.

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]

Heth . A ‘son’ of Canaan,   Genesis 10:15 (J [Note: Jahwist.] ) =   1 Chronicles 1:13 . The wives of Esau are called in   Genesis 27:46 (R [Note: Redactor.] ) ‘daughters of Heth’; and in   Genesis 23:3 ff;   Genesis 25:10;   Genesis 49:32 (all P [Note: Priestly Narrative.] ) ‘children of Heth,’ i.e. Hittites, are located at Mamre. See, further, Hittites.

Morrish Bible Dictionary [3]

Smith's Bible Dictionary [4]

Watson's Biblical & Theological Dictionary [5]

the father of the Hittites, was the eldest son of Canaan,  Genesis 10:15 , and dwelt southward of the promised land, probably about Hebron. Ephron, who was an inhabitant of that city, was of the race of Heth; and in the time of Abraham the whole city were of the family of Heth.

(Heb. Chetf, חֶת , dread; Sept.

The ‘ kings of the Hittites" is spoken of all the Canaanitish kings ( 2 Kings 2:6). In the genealogical tables of Genesis 10 and 1 Chronicles 1, Heth is named as a son of Canaan, younger than Zidon the firstborn, but preceding the Jebusite, the Amorite, and the other Canaanitish-families. The Hittites were therefore a Hamitic race, neither of the "country" nor the "kindred" of Abraham and Isaac ( Genesis 24:3-4;  Genesis 28:1-2).

Once we hear of the "daughters of Heth" ( Genesis 27:46), the "daughters of the land," at that early period still called, after their less immediate progenitor, "daughters of Canaan" ( Genesis 28:1;  Genesis 28:8, compared with  Genesis 27:46, and  Genesis 26:34-35; see also  1 Kings 11:1;  Ezekiel 16:3). In the Egyptian monuments the name Chat is said to stand for Palestine (Bunsen, Egypten, quoted by Ewald, Gesch. 1, 317, note). (See Hittite).
