Definition "my Baal," a symbolic name for Yah NASB Translation Baali (1). Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בַּעַל (Baal), meaning "lord" or "master."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Baali, as it is a specific Hebrew term with cultural and religious significance unique to the Hebrew Bible. However, the concept of lordship or mastery can be related to Greek terms such as κύριος (kyrios), meaning "lord" or "master," which is used in the New Testament to refer to God or Jesus Christ. Usage: The term Baali is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a name or title that signifies lordship or mastery. It is specifically mentioned in the context of a relationship that is being redefined or rejected. Context: Baali appears in the prophetic book of Hosea, specifically in Hosea 2:16 (BSB), where it is used in a symbolic context. The passage reads: "In that day," declares the LORD, "you will call Me 'my husband,' and no longer call Me 'my master.'" Here, Baali is contrasted with the term "Ishi," which means "my husband." The use of Baali in this context reflects a shift from a relationship based on ownership or mastery to one based on intimacy and partnership. The prophet Hosea uses this language to illustrate the transformation of Israel's relationship with God, moving away from the idolatrous associations with Baal worship and towards a covenantal relationship characterized by love and fidelity.
