This striking symbolic name appears in Isaiah 8:1 and 8:3 as the prophet's son, embodying a prophetic message about the imminent Assyrian invasion. The name literally means 'Hurrying to the plunder, rushing to the spoil,' predicting how quickly Damascus and Samaria would fall to Assyria. Isaiah was commanded to write it on a large tablet before witnesses, then gave it to his son born shortly after. This four-word Hebrew name is one of Scripture's longest personal names, functioning as a living prophetic sign.
