What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
He will come to Aiath, he will pass through Migron: at Machmas he will deposit his baggage. They went with haste to Geba, our city (or as we find elsewhere written: they stayed at the lodging place); Ramah was astonished, Gibeah of Saul fled. Cry out with your voice, daughter of Gallim; listen, Laishah, poor Anathoth: Medemena has taken flight; the inhabitants of Gebim, gather yourselves together. …
Thomas Aquinas
He shall come into Aiath. Here their escape is described in particular. And first, the oppression is set out, numbering the cities through which he passed coming from Egypt to Jerusalem: he shall come from Egypt, into Aiath, he shall pass, in haste, into Magron; at Machmas, a certain city, he shall lay up his carriages, he shall send away part of his goods so that he might come unencumbered.
