Sea Of Chinnereth [1]

Sea of Chinnereth or Chinneroth.

1. Afterward the lake of Gennesaret, a corruption of Chinnereth ( Joshua 12:3;  Joshua 13:27). The district of Chinnereth is called "all Chinnereth" ( 1 Kings 15:20).

2. A fortified city of Naphtali ( Joshua 19:35); probably the same as Tiberius, from which the lake or sea was named in a similar way ( Numbers 34:11;  John 6:1).
