It served as a city of refuge, a place where individuals accused of manslaughter could seek asylum until a fair trial. This reflects the justice and mercy inherent in God's law. Kedesh is also associated with Barak, who, alongside Deborah, led Israel to victory over the Canaanite forces of Sisera (<a href="/judges/4-6.htm">Judges 4:6</a>). The city's role as a refuge can be seen as a type of Christ, who offers refuge and salvation to all who seek Him.<p><b>Edrei</b><br>Edrei is one of the towns listed in the inheritance of Naphtali. It should not be confused with the Edrei in Bashan, where King Og was defeated by the Israelites (<a href="/numbers/21-33.htm">Numbers 21:33-35</a>). The mention of Edrei in this context highlights the distribution of land among the tribes of Israel, fulfilling God's promise to Abraham regarding the land of Canaan. The allocation of land underscores the importance of inheritance and God's faithfulness in providing for His people.<p><b>En-hazor</b><br>En-hazor is another town within the territory of Naphtali. The name suggests a connection to water, as "En" often refers to a spring or fountain. This indicates the town's possible strategic importance due to its water resources. The mention of En-hazor in the list of towns emphasizes the detailed and organized manner in which the land was divided among the tribes, ensuring that each tribe had access to necessary resources. This reflects God's provision and care for the practical needs of His people.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/k/kedesh.htm">Kedesh</a></b><br>A city of refuge located in the territory of Naphtali.
