Haydock's commentary
Magron, a village between Gabaa and Machmas, Isaias x. 28. Hebrew reads "Remmon," which means "a pomegranate tree," and denotes a famous impregnable rock, with extensive caverns, where an equal number of men had formerly saved themselves, Judges xx. 47. (Calmet) (Tirinus) (Menochius)
