STRONGS H1187: Abbreviations
† בַּ֫עַל מְּעוֺר proper name, masculine Numbers 25:3, 5; Deuteronomy 4:3 (twice in verse); Psalm 106:28; Hosea 9:10, Baal of Peor (VB) i.e. worshipped at פְּעוֹר which see; or Baal-Peor (whence Peor as proper name, of a location); compare Di Numbers 25:3 BaudStud. ii. 233 BaeRel 14, 210.

1.  ... בעל פעור Numbers 25:3, 5 (E) Deuteronomy 4:3 (see below). This divine name is not used elsewhere in Hexateuch It probably originated from the sense of divine ownership, rather than sovereignty (RSSem 92). It seems to have been used in Northern Israel = אדון in the South. It was the special name of the God of the Canaanites, Philistines, etc., = Babylonian בֵּל, compare SchrSK 1874, 335 ff. In later times scribes substituted בּשֶׁת, in proper name (ירבשׁת = ירבעל, אשׁבשׁת = אשׁבעל, see H1322 בּשֶׁת, GeiZMG 1862, 728 ff.), & also in the text for בעל Hosea 9:10
