From the tribe of Issachar
The tribe of Issachar was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Issachar, the fifth son of Jacob and Leah. In the Hebrew context, Issachar means "reward" or "recompense," reflecting the tribe's role in the nation of Israel. Historically, the tribe of Issachar was known for its wisdom and understanding of the times, as noted in 1 Chronicles 12:32. This phrase highlights the importance of Issachar's contribution to the Levitical cities, emphasizing their role in supporting the priestly functions and maintaining the spiritual well-being of the nation.

they were given
This phrase indicates the allocation of cities to the Levites, who were set apart for religious duties and did not receive a territorial inheritance like the other tribes. Instead, they were given specific cities within the territories of other tribes. This allocation underscores the communal and interdependent nature of the Israelite society, where the spiritual needs were met through the support of all tribes. The giving of cities to the Levites reflects God's provision and the importance of maintaining a dedicated priesthood to lead worship and teach the Law.

Kedesh
Kedesh, meaning "holy" or "sacred" in Hebrew, was a city of refuge and a Levitical city. Its designation as a city of refuge highlights its role as a place of asylum for those who accidentally committed manslaughter, providing them protection from the avenger of blood. This reflects God's justice and mercy, offering a means of protection and due process. Archaeologically, Kedesh has been identified with sites in the region of Galilee, providing a tangible connection to the biblical narrative and illustrating the historical reality of these cities.

Daberath
Daberath, also known as Dabareh, was another Levitical city located near Mount Tabor. The name Daberath is derived from a root meaning "pasture" or "word," suggesting a place of sustenance or communication. This city, like others given to the Levites, served as a center for teaching and worship, reinforcing the Levites' role in spiritual leadership. The location near Mount Tabor, a significant landmark in Israel's geography, situates Daberath within the broader narrative of Israel's history and God's unfolding plan for His people.

Verse 72. - Kedesh. There were three places of this name. 1. Kedesh, at the extreme south of Judah (Joshua 15:23; Joshua 19:20, 21), perhaps the same with Kadesh-barnea (Joshua 15:3). 2. The Kedesh of this verse, perhaps the same with the Kedesh of Joshua 13:22; it is called Kishon in Joshua 21:28. 3. The Kedesh of ver. 76, i.e. Kedesh in Galilee, one of the cities of refuge in the tribe of Naphtali (Joshua 19:37; 20:7; 21:32; Judges 4:6-10). Daberath (Authorized Version, Dabaroh, Joshua 21:28); mentioned as on the boundary of Zebulun in Joshua 19:12.
