"Beelzebub" is the new testament form of "Baal Zebub". In the time of Christ this was the current name for the chief or prince of demons. "Beelzebul" in Syriac means lord of dung. Beelzebul is thought to be the word intended and is also sometimes pronounced "Baal Zebel". Okay, in my Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary "Beelzebub" is defined as a Philistine god, literally "lord of flies" In my King James Bible, in the footnote for Matthew 10:25, it also states that beelzebub was also known as "the lord of flies" and "the prince of demons". None of this came from saturday morning cartoons! Why would you assume such a thing? You have 5 more verses? I have 13 more respected biblical scholars! I did however misspell beelzebub and I thank you for the correction.

Be-el Zebub was not a god, but a psychopomp, a being who conducts souls to the Underworld. In Babylonian religion, souls were symbolized as flies, therefore Lord of the Flies.

I have tomato plants and pepper plants that are 3 years old and still producing.

DeVoto mention how he knows this? I mean, did he cite some period source that explained where the term came from? or is this just what he supposes? I know of other cases in his book where he states things as facts, where actually they aren't substantiated with period sources. Even though DeVoto writes some entertaining books, one has to be careful to recognize what are real documentable facts, and not accept as gospel all of DeVoto's _opinions_ without a grain of salt. The "Bugs Boys" story may or may not be one of these cases...

I thought the conversation was about "bugs boys," and if the term is factual, and if so where did it come from. Again, once more, let me try this. Bernard DeVoto in the book he wrote that is titled "Across the Wide Missouri" said the term started out as Beelzebub Boys, then Bub's Boys, and then Bugs Boys. Are you still with me. I then pointed out that Beelzebub is fromn the bible and means Devil. Dean pointed out that Joe Meek said that "Bugs Boys" means "sons of the Devil." Then Frank, you pointed out that Beezlebub means lord of the flies. I'm sorry if I can't figure out where that has any more to do with either bugs boys or DeVoto than Saturday morning cartoons would. So I pointed out two scripture verses that show the point DeVoto is making and we get a long disertation on Beelzebub and the bible from you. If you are going to look up something in your dictionary, why don't you try "bugs boys?" And if your 13 bible scholars have any knowledge on A. why the Blackfoot Indians during the 1830's might have been called "bugs boys" by American beaver trappers, or B. if they know anything about DeVoto we need to know, then by all means let us hear from them, because I've said everything I know on the subject of "bugs boys."
