(Hebrew: lord, owner; plural: Baale or Baalim) The chief divinity, the sun god, of the Chanaanites and the Arameans; also the name of the principal deity worshiped by certain nations or communities. The Israelites worshiped Baal in the days of King Achab or Ahab (4Kings, 3,10). In some places he had a female consort named Baaloth (Greek: Beltis).
