Baal and Ashtaroth — That is, the sun and moon, whom many Heathens worshipped, tho' under divers names; and so they ran into that error which God had so expressly warned them against, Deuteronomy 4:19. Baalim signifies lords, and Ashtaroth, blessed ones, he — gods and she — gods. When they forsook Jehovah, they had gods many and lords many, as a luxuriant fancy pleased to multiply them.
