Strong's Lexicon Baalyah: Baalyah Original Word: בְּעַלְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בַּעַל (ba'al), meaning "lord" or "master," combined with יָה (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of the God of Israel. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Baalyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of "lord" is often translated as κύριος (kyrios) in Greek, which is used in the New Testament to refer to both God and Jesus Christ. Usage: The name Baalyah can be understood to mean "Yahweh is Lord" or "Lord of Yahweh." It is a theophoric name, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, which was common in ancient Israelite culture to signify devotion or a relationship with God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes used to express theological beliefs or personal devotion. The use of "Ba'al" in names was not uncommon, as it originally meant "lord" or "master" and was not exclusively associated with the Canaanite deity Baal. The inclusion of "Yah" in the name reflects a monotheistic devotion to Yahweh, distinguishing the bearer from those who might worship other deities.
