she did not know that I--not the idols, as she thought: the "lovers" alluded to in Ho 2:5. which they prepared for Baal--that is, of which they made images of Baal, or at least the plate covering of them (Ho 8:4). Baal was the PhÅ“nician sun-god: answering to the female Astarte, the moon-goddess. The name of the idol is found in the PhÅ“nician Hannibal, Hasdrubal.
