Right-click the tab and select Close Tab.
I can close them - that's not the problem.
What I want to do is delete them permanently.
Can you give more details what happens when you close a tab?
Do the tabs reopen when you (re)start Firefox?
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
They ALWAYS reopen when I start or re-start Firefox - probably thousands of times. They are for sites I haven't accessed in years.
Did you try to delete the sessionstore.js file like I posted above?
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

Windows hides some file extensions by default. Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may only see file name without file extension. You can see the real file type (file extension) in the properties of the file via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer.
Also, it's possible to accidentally specify multiple tabs in your home page setting. If the unwanted tabs show up every time you create a new window (Ctrl+n) then you definitely should check that.
