# Beelzebul #

## Facts: ##

Beelzebul is another name for Satan, or the devil. It is also sometimes spelled, "Beelzebub."

 * This name literally means "lord of flies" which means, "ruler over demons." But it is best to translate this term close to the original spelling rather than translate the meaning.
 * It could also be translated as "Beelzebul the devil" to make it clear who is being referred to.
 * This name is related to the name of the false god "Baal-zebub" of Ekron.
