        <p> [[Israel]] had attributed to [[Baalim]] the blessings [[Jehovah]] had given them: Jehovah said He would strip them of those mercies to show them their folly. In the last days a remnant will be brought into the wilderness, and be spoken comfortably to. Self judgement will be the door of hope — (Valley of Achor). God will no longer be called 'my Master,' as the word [[Baali]] signifies, but 'Husband,' and He will take away the names of their idolatrous masters, Baalim, and they shall no more be remembered. Hosea 2:16 : cf. vers. 8,13,17. </p>

        <p> (Hebrews Badli', בִּעֲלַי , my lord, Sept. Βααλείμ), a colder and more distant title for husband, whichthe prophet reproaches the [[Jewish]] [[Church]] for hitherto applying to Jehovah, instead of the more endearing term Ishi (my man, i.e. husband), which he predicts she would be emboldened to employ when freed from her idolatries ( Hosea 2:16). Some have supposed from this that the Jews had even borrowed the term Baal from the surrounding nations as expressive of sovereign deity, and so applied it to Jehovah; but this is not likely. (See [[Baal]]). </p>
