covenant lord, the name of the god worshipped in Shechem after the death of Gideon (Judg. 8:33<\/span>; 9:4<\/span>). In 9:46 he is called simply “the god Berith.” The name denotes the god of the covenant into which the Israelites entered with the Canaanites, contrary to the command of Jehovah (Ex. 34:12<\/span>), when they began to fall away to the worship of idols.<\/p>\n Worshipped at Shechem by Israel after Gideon’s death (Jdg 8:33; Jdg 9:4) “Baal in covenant”, namely, with his worshippers; or perhaps a compromise, to combine Baal with the “covenant” of Jehovah.<\/p>\n BAAL-BERITH (lord of the covenant).The god of Shechem, where he had a temple (Jdg 8:33; Jdg 9:4); called also El-berith (Jdg 9:46). The covenant may be that amongst the Canaanite peoples or that between Canaanltes and Israelites; or the title may be parallel to Zeus Horkios, the god who presides over covenants.<\/p>\n Jdg 8:33; Jdg 9:4 This dunghill god was made the idol of the children of Israel, after the death of Gideon. The name Berith means the Lord of the covenant. But what covenant? Was Israel so far gone in idolatry, as not only to set up an idol, but to insult JEHOVAH in his gracious covenant? To what an awful state is our nature reduced by the fall! Into what an awful apostacy may, and will, every man sink, void of grace! Reader, turn to that sweet covenant promine, Jer 32:40.<\/p>\n ba-al-berith , baal berth = Baal of the Covenant): An idol worshipped by the Shechemites after Gideon’s death (Jdg 8:33), as protector and guardian of engagements. His temple is also referred to in Jdg 9:4. See BAAL.
