Is beelzebub a demon or the devil?
Depends. In mythology Baalzebub or Beelzebub means "Lord of the Flies", a demon. In the New Testament, Mark 3:22, the Pharisees accuse Jesus of casting out demons in the name of Beelzeboul, a prince of demons. II Kings 1:2-3,6, refers to Beelzebub (Baalzebub) as Lord of the flies. Baal is a semitic word for lord or master. Beelzebub was the god of the Ekronites: 2Kings 1:2 Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria, and was injured; so he sent messengers and said to them, "Go, inquire of Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this injury." The Jews looked upon all the deities of the Gentiles as demons, or devils; and since Beelzebub was the chief of them, in Mark 3:22 they thought they could not use a more reproachful name, to give to Christ, than this. Beelzebub is not Satan: Mark 3:23 So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: "How can Satan cast out Satan? Satan will not destroy his own kingdom.
