Kommentar zu Schoftim 4:2
וַיִּמְכְּרֵ֣ם יְהוָ֗ה בְּיַד֙ יָבִ֣ין מֶֽלֶךְ־כְּנַ֔עַן אֲשֶׁ֥ר מָלַ֖ךְ בְּחָצ֑וֹר וְשַׂר־צְבָאוֹ֙ סִֽיסְרָ֔א וְה֥וּא יוֹשֵׁ֖ב בַּחֲרֹ֥שֶׁת הַגּוֹיִֽם׃
Und der Herr lieferte sie in die Hand des Jabin, Königs von Kanaan, der zu Hazor regierte, und sein Heerführer war Sisera; er wohnte zu Haroset Hagojim.
Rashi on Judges
Charoshes Hogoyim. The name of a city, so entitled because it was a stronghold, and the seat of authority.1This is based on Targum Yonasan, who translates חֲרֹשֶׁת הַגּוֹיׅם as “the stronghold, metropolis of nations”.

Before Joshua captured Chatzor, as its written in Joshua 11:1, he smote it with a sword, but not its king. After he was captured (he saved himself?) and the king of Charoshet goyim, it was a place where all froms of iron work was done.
