Madmenah

Madmenah appears once in Scripture in Isaiah's vivid prophetic vision of the Assyrian army's relentless advance toward Jerusalem: "Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee" (Isaiah 10:31). The prophecy traces the Assyrian invasion route village by village down the central Benjaminite ridge — from Aiath through Migron, Michmash, Geba, Ramah, Gibeah, Gallim, Laishah, Anathoth, Madmenah, and Gebim — until the Lord cuts down their advance at Nob in sight of Mount Zion. The town lay a few miles north of Jerusalem on the road from Anathoth to the holy city.
