Has anyone seen what the kid's name is? I can't remember it, and don't really feel like looking it up, but I think it was Aram or something like that? I don't know, it just struck me as an odd name and I was wondering what it meant, if it means anything.

Okay, killing my last 15 mins of work, here it is:

ARAM. Biblical, O.T.
(1) The youngest son of Shem, the progenitor of the Syrians. His sons were Uz, Hul, Gether and Mash or Meshech (Gen. x. 22, 23; 1 Chron. i. 17).
(5) The country, Syria. In the A.V. it is used almost exclusively in composition, the one exception being in Numb. xxiii. 7, where it signifies Eastern Syria, Mesopotamia. In the R.V. it is found on the margin of Judg. iii. 10, with the same meaning.

¶ The Aramaic, Aramean or Aramaean Language is the language of Aram or Syria.

I think the cover of Time Magazine has to do with the sign of Immanuel from the book of Isaiah.

5 Aram, Ephraim and Remaliah’s son have plotted your ruin, saying, 6 “Let us invade Judah; let us tear it apart and divide it among ourselves, and make the son of Tabeel king over it.”

7 Yet this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “‘It will not take place, it will not happen, 8 for the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is only Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be too shattered to be a people.

9 The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is only Remaliah’s son. If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all.’”

10 Again the Lord spoke to Ahaz, 11 “Ask the Lord your God for a sign, whether in the deepest depths or in the highest heights. ”

12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask; I will not put the Lord to the test. ”

13 Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of humans? Will you try the patience of my God also?

14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. 15 He will be eating curds and honey when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, 16 for before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.
 Quoting: Isaiah 7


The sign of Immanuel has to do with the desolation of Aram (Syria) before the time Immanuel is old enough to wean or stop depending on breastmilk.
