Commentary
3 notes on this verseAnd Adamah,.... Adamah is different from Adami, Jos 19:33; and may seem to confirm the notion of some, that Nekeb there is an epithet of it, and so distinguishes it from Adamah here: and Ramah; of Ramah, as there were several places of this name; see Gill on Jos 19:29, and Hazor was a royal city, of which; see Gill on Jos 11:1.
This site's exposition
The sixth lot came out
on Joshua 19:32-39
Hazor at verse 36 was the head of the northern kingdoms and was burned at 11:10-11, and it appears here as an ordinary town of the inheritance, while a king of Hazor is oppressing Israel again by Judges 4:2. Kedesh at verse 37 is set apart as a city of refuge at 20:7 and is where Deborah sends for Barak at Judges 4:6. Judges 1:33 names Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath as towns Naphtali never cleared, and both of them close this list at verse 38. Isaiah 9:1 speaks over the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the two portions given in this chapter, and Matthew 4:15 quotes that verse of Christ settling in Capernaum.

the sixth lot came out to the children of Naphtali--Although the cities mentioned have not been discovered, it is evident, from Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh, that is, on the northwest of Lake Merom (Jud 4:11), that the boundary described (Jos 19:34) ran from the southwest towards the northeast, up to the sources of the Jordan.
