ΒάαλBáal
Baal, a Phœnician deity (used as a symbol of idolatry)
Greek (New Testament) · G896
Meanings
Baal: Romans 11:4(LXX). The fem. article here agrees with the usage of LXX, where, following a similar Hebrew practice (בֹּשֶׁת for בַּעַל), αἰσχύνη appears to have been substituted in reading for the written Βάαλ (cf. 1 Kings 18:19), and to account for the frequently use of the fem. article bef. Β. The usage, however, is not general, and in the passage cited in Ro (1 Kings 19:18), LXX reads τῷ Β.
