THE MEANING OF BAAL?
The word ‘Baal’ was mistransliterated from the Igbo words: bụ alụ, meaning ‘it is sacrilege’, this suggests that Holy things
were treated with disrespect. There is a related Igbo word: alụsị, meaning ‘carved representation of a spirit or deity’.
The words: bow (ụta), sword (mma agha) and land (ala), are object forms of the subject expression: e bu alụ ụta a ghaa Ama, a laa n’udo, meaning ‘presenting sacrileges and wrongdoings, to leave them at the Church, and go in peace’.
