From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kadesh       the sacred city of the Hittites, on the left bank of the       Orontes, about 4 miles south of the Lake of Homs. It is       identified with the great mound Tell Neby Mendeh, some 50 to 100       feet high, and 400 yards long. On the ruins of the temple of       Karnak, in Egypt, has been found an inscription recording the       capture of this city by Rameses II. (See {PHARAOH}.)       Here the sculptor "has chiselled in deep work on the stone, with       a bold execution of the several parts, the procession of the       warriors, the battle before Kadesh, the storming of the       fortress, the overthrow of the enemy, and the camp life of the       Egyptians." (See {HITTITES}.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kadesh       holy, or Kadesh-Barnea, sacred desert of wandering, a place on       the south-eastern border of Palestine, about 165 miles from       Horeb. It lay in the "wilderness" or "desert of Zin" (Gen. 14:7;       Num. 13:3-26; 14:29-33; 20:1; 27:14), on the border of Edom       (20:16). From this place, in compliance with the desire of the       people, Moses sent forth "twelve spies" to spy the land. After       examining it in all its districts, the spies brought back an       evil report, Joshua and Caleb alone giving a good report of the       land (13:18-31). Influenced by the discouraging report, the       people abandoned all hope of entering into the Promised Land.       They remained a considerable time at Kadesh. (See HORMAH       ¯T0001820; {KORAH}.) Because of their unbelief, they       were condemned by God to wander for thirty-eight years in the       wilderness. They took their journey from Kadesh into the deserts       of Paran, "by way of the Red Sea" (Deut. 2:1). (One theory is       that during these thirty-eight years they remained in and about       Kadesh.)                At the end of these years of wanderings, the tribes were a       second time gathered together at Kadesh. During their stay here       at this time Miriam died and was buried. Here the people       murmured for want of water, as their forefathers had done       formerly at Rephidim; and Moses, irritated by their chidings,       "with his rod smote the rock twice," instead of "speaking to the       rock before their eyes," as the Lord had commanded him (comp.       Num. 27:14; Deut. 9:23; Ps. 106:32, 33). Because of this act of       his, in which Aaron too was involved, neither of them was to be       permitted to set foot within the Promised Land (Num. 20:12, 24).       The king of Edom would not permit them to pass on through his       territory, and therefore they commenced an eastward march, and       "came unto Mount Hor" (20:22).                This place has been identified with 'Ain el-Kadeis, about 12       miles east-south-east of Beersheba. (See {SPIES}.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kedesh       sanctuary. (1.) A place in the extreme south of Judah (Josh.       15:23). Probably the same as Kadesh-barnea (q.v.).                (2.) A city of Issachar (1 Chr. 6:72). Possibly Tell Abu       Kadeis, near Lejjun.                (3.) A "fenced city" of Naphtali, one of the cities of refuge       (Josh. 19:37; Judg. 4:6). It was assigned to the Gershonite       Levites (Josh. 21:32). It was originally a Canaanite royal city       (Josh. 12:22), and was the residence of Barak (Judg. 4:6); and       here he and Deborah assembled the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali       before the commencement of the conflict with Sisera in the plain       of Esdraelon, "for Jehovah among the mighty" (9, 10). In the       reign of Pekah it was taken by Tiglath-Pileser (2 Kings 15:29).       It was situated near the "plain" (rather "the oak") of Zaanaim,       and has been identified with the modern Kedes, on the hills       fully four miles north-west of Lake El Huleh.                It has been supposed by some that the Kedesh of the narrative,       where Barak assembled his troops, was not the place in Upper       Galilee so named, which was 30 miles distant from the plain of       Esdraelon, but Kedish, on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, 12       miles from Tabor.
