Beelzebub

From BibleWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

(Gr. form Beel'zebul), the name given to Satan, and found only in the New Testament (Mt 10:25; 12:24, 27; Mk 3:22). It is probably the same as Baalzebub, the god of Ekron, meaning "the Lord of flies," or, as others think, "the lord of dung," or "the dung-god."
