Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Kedesh: Joshua 19:37, Joshua 20:7, 1 Chronicles 6:76

Hammothdor: Supposed by many to be the same as Tiberias; so called from the hot-baths, as the word Chammoth may denote, in its vicinity. Joshua 19:35, Hammath

Kartan: Supposed to be the same as Kirjathaim. 1 Chronicles 6:76

Reciprocal: Numbers 35:6 - six cities for refuge Joshua 12:22 - Kedesh Judges 4:6 - Kedeshnaphtali 1 Chronicles 6:72 - Kedesh Matthew 4:15 - Galilee Mark 3:7 - Galilee

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs,.... Of which see Joshua 20:7;

[to be] a city of refuge for the slayer; this is the fourth city of refuge mentioned:

and Hammothdor with her suburbs; the same with Hammon, 1 Chronicles 6:76; and with Hammath, Joshua 19:35; and is thought by some to be Tiberias, so called from the hot baths in or near it:

and Kartan with her suburbs; called Kirjathaim, 1 Chronicles 6:76; but cannot be the Kirjathaim in Numbers 32:37; for that belonged to the tribe of Reuben, and was on the other side Jordan:

three cities; this being a lesser tribe than some others gave fewer cities, according to the rule in Numbers 35:8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare Joshua 19:18, etc. Of the cities of the Gershonites, for Beesh-terah read (Beeshterah.) The name is a contraction of Beth-Ashterah (“house of Ashterah”) and the city is undoubtedly the Ashtaroth or Astaroth of Og Joshua 12:4; Deu 1:4; 1 Chronicles 6:71.
