Where is Madmenah in the Bible?
Madmenah was a small settlement located near Jerusalem in ancient Judah, mentioned in the prophet Isaiah's oracle against Assyria. In Isaiah 10:31, the prophet describes the Assyrian army's advance toward Jerusalem, listing Madmenah among the towns in the path of invasion as the forces move southward through the Judean hills. While little is known about Madmenah's exact location or significance beyond this biblical reference, its inclusion in Isaiah's prophecy emphasizes the threat posed by the Assyrian military campaign to the communities surrounding Jerusalem. The mention of this place contributes to Isaiah's vivid depiction of judgment and the vulnerability of Judah's outlying settlements during a period of regional conflict.
