Baal-zephon

Baal-zephon or Baalzephon, properly Baʿal Zaphon or Ṣaphon (Hebrew: בעל צפון‎‎; Akkadian: ^dIM Be-el ḪUR.SAG Ḫa-zi; Hurrian: Tšb Ḫlbğ), was the form of the Canaanite storm god Baʿal (lit. "The Lord") in his role as lord of Mount Zaphon; he is identified in the Ugaritic texts as Hadad. Because of the mountain's importance and location, it came to metonymously signify "north" in Hebrew; the name is therefore sometimes mistakenly given in translation as Lord of the North. He was equated with the Greek god Zeus in his form Zeus Kasios and later with the Roman Jupiter Casius.

Because Baʿal Zaphon was considered a protector of maritime trade, sanctuaries were constructed in his honor around the Mediterranean by his Canaanite and Phoenician devotees. "Baal-zephon" thereby also became a placename, most notably a location mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures' Book of Exodus as the location where the Israelites miraculously crossed the Red Sea during their exodus from Egypt.
