Symbolical name given to one of Isaiah's sons. Isaiah 8:1-4 . It signifies 'swift for spoil, hasty for prey.' The child was to be so called because before he should "have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria" should be taken away before the king of Assyria. See 2 Kings 15:29; 2 Kings 16:9 .
