 Symmachus the Ebionite rendered it as "Beëlzeboúl" (), possibly reflecting its original sense.This has been proposed to have been "B‘l Zbl", Ugaritic for "Lord of the Home" or "Lord of the Heavens".Outside of Jewish and Christian contexts, the various forms of Baʿal were indifferently rendered in classical sources as Belus (, "Bē̂los").
