Mythology Summary
Bel is the Akkadian word belu, lord, used as the standing title of the high god: of Enlil at Nippur in the second millennium, and above all of Marduk at Babylon, where Bel-Marduk is the city's lord and the New Year recitation of Enuma Elish is his. The deuterocanonical Bel and the Dragon is a satire on his idol at Babylon, and at Palmyra in the Roman period Bel is a great god in his own right. The name is the same Semitic root as Baal, lord or owner, though the two belong to different traditions.
Modern Practice
Bel is an address rather than a separate patron: the entry is for those who need to name the authority they are speaking to, and it should be used with a clear sense of which god is being meant. It is not a way of smuggling Marduk in under another name without saying so.
