Commentary

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs,.... Of which see Jos 20:7 , to be a city of refuge for the s layer; this is the fourth city of refuge mentioned: and Hammothdor with her suburbs; the same with Hammon, Ch1 6:76 ; and with Hammath, Jos 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, Ch1 6:76 ; but cannot be the Kirjathaim in Num 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 Num 35:8 .
