Spoke 12

Baalzebub

Matthew 12 chain 2 Kings

But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.

Matthew 12

And Ahaziah fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron whether I shall recover of this disease. But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron? Now therefore thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.

Book 12 (2 Kings 1.1f)

Baalzebeub

2 Kings is the only book in the Old Testament to mention Baalzebub. This is strongly correlated with the verses above from Matthew 12, but this is not a KeyLink because Jesus mentions this name in Matthew 10.

The context is sobering. In 2 Kings, Ahaziah looked to a demon god - ignoring the true Lord. In Matthew 12, the Pharissees accused the true Lord of being empowered by the demon. Here is the warning they received for this heineous act:

But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

Satan Cast Out

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Revelation 12

Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

John 12

But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

Matthew 12

The idea of "casting out" links to the meaning of Lamed as "ox goad." This is reflected in its gramatical function as the prepositional particle that means "to" or "for" (cf. Lamed Alphabetic Verses). This is the basis of a threefold KeyLink connecting Matthew, John, and Revelation based on the set ("cast out", prince/world) [Verify] :

KeyLink: Satan Cast Out
Matthew 12 John 12 Revelation 12

Its one thing for these three Inner Cycles to be linked by common content, its quite another for that content to be based on the meaning of the corresponding Hebrew Letter! Note also that the linked pasaged in Revelation 12 is the account of the casting out of Satan from heaven, the most significant verse in the Bible consistent with this theme.
