Chinnereth:
lyre, the singular form of the word (Deu 3:17; Jos 19:35), which is also used in the plural form, Chinneroth, the name of a fenced city which stood near the shore of the lake of Galilee, a little to the south of Tiberias. The town seems to have given its name to a district, as appears from 1Ki 15:20, where the plural form of the word is used.
The Sea of Chinnereth (Num 34:11; Jos 13:27), or of Chinneroth (Jos 12:3), was the "lake of Gennesaret" or "sea of Tiberias" (Deu 3:17; Jos 11:2). Chinnereth was probably an ancient Canaanitish name adopted by the Israelites into their language.
Chinnereth:
kin'-e-reth, kin'-e-roth (kinnereth (De 3:17; Jos 19:35, etc.)), (kinaroth; Codex Vaticanus, Kenereth, Codex Alexandrinus, Cheneroth (Jos 11:2)): Taking the order in which the towns are mentioned, this city seems to have lain North of Rakkath (?Tiberias). It may have occupied the site of el-Mejdel, at the Southwest corner of the plain of Gennesaret. From this city the sea took its Old Testament name (Nu 34:11, etc.).
Chinnereth:
(circuit) accurately Cinnareth, a fortified city in the tribe of Naphtali (Joshua 19:35 only) of which no trace is found in later writers, and no remains by travelers.
