59. Numbers – Moabites & Balaam 22:1 – 25:18
Worship of Baal of Peor (25:1-18)
BAAL - Name of the most prominent Canaanite deity. As the god of fertility in the Canaanite pantheon, Baal’s sphere of influence included agriculture, animal husbandry, and human sexuality. The word Baal occurs in the OT in combination with other terms, such as place-names (Baal-peor, Num 25:5) indicating the use of the name in connection with a local place-name may indicate a local cult of Baal worship.
Places for worship of Baal were often high places in the hills consisting of an altar and a sacred tree, stone, or pillar (2 Kgs 23:5). The Canaanites engaged in orgiastic worship that included human sacrifice as well as sexual rites (Jer 7:31; 19:4–6). Sacred prostitutes evidently participated in the autumnal religious ritual. The worship of Baal was strongly condemned in the OT (Jgs 2:12–14; 3:7–8; Jer 19). Elwell, W. A., & Comfort, P. W. (2001). Tyndale Bible dictionary. Tyndale reference library (135).
