Cinnereth
From BibleWiki
(Redirected from Cinneroth)
a harp, one of the "fenced cities" of Naphtali (Josh 19:35; comp. Deut 3:17). It also denotes, apparently, a district which may have taken its name from the adjacent city or lake of Gennesaret, anciently called "the sea of Chinnereth" (q.v.), and was probably that enclosed district north of Tiberias afterwards called "the plain of Gennesaret." Called Chinneroth (R.V., Chinnereth) Josh 11:2. The phrase "all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali" in 1 Kg 15:20 is parallel to "the store-houses of the cities of Naphtali" (R.V. marg.) in 2Chr 16:4.
