* He is come.
This is a prophetical description of the march of
Sennacherib's army approaching Jerusalem in order to invest
it, and of the terror and confusion spreading and increasing
through the several places as he advanced; expressed with
great brevity, but finely diversified. Aiath, or Ai, was
situated a little east of Bethel about twelve miles north of
Jerusalem; Michmash about three miles nearer, where there was
a narrow pass between two sharp hills; Geba and Ramah about
three miles more to the south; Gibeah a mile and a half more
southward; Anathoth within three miles of Jerusalem; to the
westward of which, towards Lydda, was Nob, from which place
Sennacherib might have a prospect of Zion, and near which, it
would appear, his army was destroyed.
