Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the fenced cities [are] Ziddim,.... The later name of Ziddim, according to the Talmud i, was Cepharchitiya, or the village of wheat, perhaps from the large quantity or goodness of wheat there;

Zer is called by Jerom k Sor, and interpreted Tyre, the metropolis of Phoenicia, very wrongly, and, in the tribe of Naphtali;

and Hammath probably was built by the youngest son of Canaan,

Genesis 10:18; or had its name in memory of him; it lay to the north of the land of Israel; see Numbers 34:8;

Rakkath, and Chinnereth; Rakkath according to the Jewish writers l is the same with Tiberias, as Chinnereth with Gennesaret, from whence the lake or sea of Tiberias, and the country and lake of Gennesaret, had their names, often mentioned in the New Testament. Gennesaret was a most delicious and fruitful spot, and fulfilled the prophecy of Moses,

Deuteronomy 33:23; concerning Naphtali.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The number of the fortified cities of Naphtali is remarkable, though it does not tally with the catalogue. It was no doubt good policy to protect the northern frontier by a belt of fortresses, as the south was protected by the fenced cities of Judah. Hammath, a Levitical city (compare Joshua 21:32; 1 Chronicles 6:76), is not to be confounded with the Hamath on the northeastern frontier of the land Numbers 13:21. The name (from a root signifying “to be warm”) probably indicates that hot springs existed here; and is perhaps rightly traced in Ammaus, near Tiberias. Rakkath was, according to the rabbis, rebuilt by Herod and called Tiberias. The name (“bank, shore”) suits the site of Tiberias very well. Migdal-el, perhaps the Magdala of Matthew 15:39, is now the miserable village of “El Mejdel.”
