Semuanya itu adalah kota berkubu, dengan tembok yang tinggi-tinggi, dengan pintu-pintu gerbang dan palang-palangnya; lain dari pada itu sangat banyak kota yang tidak berkubu.
Maka segala negeri itu berkota benteng, dan berpagarkan batu tinggi-tinggi, serta dengan pintu gerbang dan bersakat, lain dari pada amat banyak negeri yang tiada berpagarkan tembok.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars,.... That is, all the cities in the kingdom of Bashan; and though they were, it hindered not their falling into the hands of the Israelites; and this might serve to encourage them against those fears they were possessed of by the spies, with respect to the cities in the land of Canaan; see Numbers 13:28
besides unwalled towns a great many; small towns and villages adjacent to the several cities, as is common.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Gates, and bars - literally, “Double gates and a bar.” The stone doors of Bashan, their height pointing to a race of great stature, and the numerous cities (deserted) exist to illustrate the statements of these verses.
