Menois

Menois, a small town near Gaza in the Roman province of Palaestina Prima, is mentioned by Eusebius of Caesarea and other sources of the first millennium AD.

[3] Different manuscripts of the Septuagint give the name as ΜΑΧΑΡΕΙΜ (Macharim), ΒΕΔΕΒΗΝΑ (Bedebena), and ΜΑΡΑΡΕΙΜ (Mararim)[clarification needed].

κεῖται καὶ ἐν Ἡσαΐᾳ (Medebena of the tribe of Judah, now Menois, a little town near Gaza, mentioned also in Isaiah).

[5][6] When Jerome translated the Onomasticon into Latin, he gave the name as Medemena,[7] a change that Negev and Gibson consider to be a correction.

Scholars have taken the context of the mention of Madmenah in Isaiah 10:31 as indicating that it was a place whereby an army approached Jerusalem from the north.

[2] Speaking of "Madmenah (מדמנה; ΜΑΔΕΒΗΝΑ [ BאAQ ]), a supposed village of Benjamin, mentioned with Gebim, Is 10:31", the Encyclopaedia Biblica says: "Probably the name is corrupt (cp MADMEN), and we should read רמנה, Rimmonah.
