“Baal” means “Lord.” “Baal-Berith” is “Lord Berith.” He foretells the future, discerns the past, and can
turn metal into gold.
He helps in rising to high places and receiving honors. He speaks with a very clear and soft voice.
Baal-Bereth is the Father of the Yule season and the Yule (xmas) Tree. “The Christmas tree, now so
common among us, was equally common in Pagan Rome and Pagan Egypt. In Egypt that tree was the
palm-tree; in Rome it was the fir; the palm-tree denoting the Pagan Messiah, as Baal-Tamar, the fir
referring to him as Baal-Berith.”¹
“The Christmas-tree, as has been stated, was generally at Rome a different tree, even the fir; but the very
same idea as was implied in the palm-tree was implied in the Christmas-fir; for that covertly symbolised
the new-born God as Baal-Berith, “Lord of the Covenant,” and thus shadowed forth the perpetuity and
everlasting nature of his power, not that after having fallen before his enemies, he had risen triumphant
over them all.” ²
In Egypt they worshipped Nimrod as a palm tree, referring to him as the Messiah “Baal-Tamar.”
Among the most ancient of Baals, he was known as Baal-Bereth, “Lord of the fir-tree.” He evolved into
Baal-Berith, “Lord of the Covenant.” In Ancient Rome, where they also worshiped the fir tree, they
called him “Baal-Berith.”
