This word is properly applied by the sacred writers to such lewd, profligate, and vile persons, as seem to regard neither God nor man. &nbsp;Deuteronomy 13:13, [[A.]] [[V.,]] but "base fellows," [[R.]] [[V.]] &nbsp;Judges 19:22; &nbsp;1 Samuel 2:12. In the New Testament, "Belial" is used as an appellation of Satan, the power or lord of evil: "What concord hath Christ with Belial," the prince of licentiousness and corruption? &nbsp;2 Corinthians 6:15. </p>
