A GL translator made a comment about this:

Racial superiority

Yahweh viewed Israel as superior to the other nations of Canaan. In many cultures, this may be seen as immoral. It must be remembered that the instructions of this chapter are very remote from the modern world. These people groups were always sinful and idolatrous. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin)

He said he did not see any evidence that this chapter affirms that Yahweh considers Israel superior to other nations in Canann" or that "these people groups were always sinful and idolatrous."

I've read through the chapter, and I do not see racial superiority as a major concept.

I suggest deleting it.
