Padanaram
Pa’dan-a’ram. By this name, which signifies the table-land of Aram, that is, Syriac, the Hebrews designated the tract of country, which they, otherwise, called the Aram-naharaim, “Aram of the two of rivers”, the Greek Mesopotamia, Gen 24:10, and “the field, (Authorized Version, ‘country’), of Syria.” Hos 12:13.
The term was, perhaps, more especially applied to that portion, which bordered on the Euphrates, to distinguish if from the mountainous districts, in the north and northeast of Mesopotamia. It is, elsewhere, called Padan simply. Gen 48:7. Abraham obtained a wife for Isaac, from Padan-aram. Gen 25:20. Jacob’s wives were also from Padan-aram, Gen 28:2; Gen 28:5-7; Gen 31:1-8; Gen 33:18.
