However, the concept of Baal worship is addressed in the New Testament, often in the context of idolatry (e.g., 1 Corinthians 10:20).<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Baal Gad refers to a location named after the Canaanite deity Baal, associated with fortune or troop. It signifies a place where the worship of Baal was prevalent, reflecting the syncretism in the region during the time of the Israelites' settlement.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Baal Gad was situated at the foot of Mount Hermon in the Valley of Lebanon. It was a significant Canaanite city during the conquest of the Promised Land by the Israelites. The name reflects the Canaanite religious practices that were prevalent in the region, where Baal was worshiped as a god of fertility and fortune. The Israelites were often warned against adopting these pagan practices, as they were called to worship Yahweh alone.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1168.htm">Baal</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1409.htm">gad</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"Baal of fortune," a place near Mt.
