The town seems to have given its name to a district, as appears from 1 Kings 15:20 , where the plural form of the word is used. The Sea of Chinnereth ( Numbers 34:11 ; Joshua 13:27 ), or of Chinneroth ( Joshua 12 :: 3 ), was the "lake of Gennesaret" or "sea of Tiberias" ( Deuteronomy 3:17 ; Joshua 11:2 ). Chinnereth was probably an ancient Canaanitish name adopted by the Israelites into their language.
