HISTORY OF BAAL
Back in the time before Abrahamic religions, when there were many gods, people were “Pagan”.
In Canaanite, EL was a key God and his son was/is Ba’al.
Baal is a Christian demon. Baal was the most important god of the ancient Canaanites.
Baal is actually a general word meaning “lord.” In religious contexts, the specific lord in question is usually the Canaanite god of rain, dew, and fertile fields.. This god is said to ride on the clouds. He is also called “Prince Baal.” In Semitic languages, the phrase is Baal zebul.
The transition from Bael to Beelzebub
Beelzebub or Beelzebul was identified by the writers of the New Testament as Satan, “prince” (i.e., king) of the demons. (e.g., Matthew 10.25; Mark 3.22; Luke 11.15, 18–19). Any reference to the Canaanite god had been lost at that stage.
“Beelzebub is another name for the devil similar to Satan.” He is known by believers as one of the seven princes of Hell, according to Catholic views in terms of demonology.
In the Testament of Solomon, Beelzebul (not Beelzebub) appears as prince of the demons and says that he was formerly a leading heavenly angel who was associated with the star Hesperus. Seemingly, Beelzebul here is simply Lucifer. “Beelzebul claims to cause destruction through tyrants, to cause demons to be worshipped among men, to excite priests to lust, to cause jealousies in cities and murders, and to bring on war.”
