Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 35. - And the fenced cities. The remark is made in the 'Speaker's Commentary' that the number of fenced cities in the north were no doubt owing to a determination to protect the northern boundary of Israel by a chain of fortresses. The word fenced is the same that is rendered strong in ver. 29, "the strong city Tyre." Chinnereth (see Joshua 11:2).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(35) The fenced cities.--Observe the protection of the northern border by fortresses. Ziddim (Hattin), Hammath (Hammam Tabariya), Rakkath (Tiberias), and Chinnereth (not identified, but giving a name to the Sea of Galilee, and therefore evidently close by), are all in sheet 6, near the lake.(36,37) Adamah (Ed-Dameh,?Daimah, sheet 6), Ramah (Rameh), Hazor (Hadireh), Kedesh (Kades), Edrei (Y'ater), En-hazor (Hazireh), and Iron (Y'arum), are all in sheet 4, north of the above. The town of Hazor has been variously identified by previous writers, but Conder expresses no doubt as to its being Hadireh, which certainly occupies a commanding position above a stream that flows into Lake Merom.
