If he starts to age rapidly, speak, and display powers then we should worry he is the anti Christ, Dejjal, or deceiver. I don't know what he is called
in the jewish religion. Do they have a deceiver too?
Yes they do, and then to make things slightly more confusing some jews are expecting two Messiahs ( Moshiach ben Josef and Moschiach ben David) to
turn up, the first of which will be killed by the deceiver (false Messiah / Anti-Christ ) leading to the ascension of the second as the King Messiah
(in some interpretations).
On topic this particular baby is reported as being weeks old, someone probably just abandoned it there knowing the clergy would look after it. It's
hardly uncommon for people to walk through the Dome of the Rock with babies and small children, nor is it uncommon for people to abandon children to
the temples.
Now if a newborn baby had appeared out of thin air, surrounded by a nimbus of light, in front of a gathering of the faithful at the rock, then perhaps
the crazyness going on in this thread would be a bit more justified.
