[Avodah] Ahab

[Eli Turkel via Avodah]

OTOH Rashi on the recent parsha with "kol benotav" gives 2 options. Either
each son had a twin daughter and so the sons of Leah married dauighters of
the other 3 wives (the twin of Binyamin being much younger)
and similarly for the other 6 sons or else that they married Caananite
women.

So according to the second perush there was no problem with marrying
canaanite women
