Contextual Overview
7 They fought the Midianites as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed every Midianite man. 8 Among those they killed were Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, who were the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with a sword. 9 The Israelites captured the Midianite women and children, and they took all their flocks, herds, and goods. 10 They burned all the Midianite towns where they had settled and all their camps, 11 but they took all the people and animals and goods. 12 Then they brought the captives, the animals, and the goods back to Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the Israelites. Their camp was on the plains of Moab near the Jordan River, across from Jericho.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, c. So far as they went into the country, which, perhaps, might not be the whole land of Midian:
and all their goodly castles with fire which were either the palaces of their princes and nobles, or such like great personages; or they were fortified places, for the security of their cities and country: the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan interpret them of their houses of worship, their temples, and their altars.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Goodly castles - Rather, both here and in Genesis 25:16, hamlets. The word is derived from a word ××ּר tÌ£uÌr,) signifying âa rowâ or ârangeâ (compareEzekiel 46:23; Ezekiel 46:23); and probably indicates those collections of rude dwellings, made of stones piled one on another and covered with tent-cloths, which are used by the Arabs to this day; and which are frequently mentioned as douars in narratives of the French campaigns in Algeria. These dwellings would be formed usually in a circle. See the word âHazeroth,â in Numbers 11:35.
