ὁ, ἡ, indecl. (Heb. בַּעַל, lord), Baal: (LXX). The fem. art. here agrees with the usage of LXX, where, following a similar Hebrew practice (*בֹּשֶׁת *for בַּעַל), *αἰσχύνη *appears to have been substituted in reading for the written Βάαλ, and to account for the frequently use of the fem. art. bef. Β. The usage, however, is not general, and in the passage cited in Ro , LXX reads Β.
