Do you know if King David has children with Baal in their names?
Wouldn't think so, David went to war with Eshbaal, and he was a righteous King, and one who "abandoned haughtiness".

As anyone reading Joshua through Kings in the Bible -- Baal and YHWH are huge rivals for the hearts and minds of the Israelites ... thought to be one in the same at times ... King David having Children with Baal in their name .. which is a big deal if you know any thing about names in the OT .. Samuel for example Samu-EL is not an Accident .. nor is Isra - EL .. one who struggles with the most high God EL ..

What was this war with Eshbaal about, and this is where I learned about David's children's names being baal. Example: Samuel, for example, Samu-EL. Oh, and what about Isra-EL -- what happened to Isha? Krishna's God, Brahman? Isha? How did that become transposed to Isra-EL for that Baal? What does Baal mean?
@Sargonski What does Baal even mean? What is EL compared to not EL?
I notice that people are gods, and a lot of these gods' names are from actual earth meanings; for example, lord means owner of property, and some people would claim to praise the lord.
It's actually praising the landowner for what reasons? Then later, somehow, this turned into some kind of Christianity claiming praise for the Lord. Is it that Christians claim that God is the landowner of their what? When do they say Praise the Lord? Is Lord Baal at all, because what is baal actually? Is Baal some type of Lord Landowner ever?
Yet @GoodAttention explains that David was at war with Eshbaal; do you, @Sargonski, know anything about this?
Maybe other religions also praise the Lord, so other religions also say this too? But what does that mean to praise the Lord? Lord means owner of land. So praise the person who owns land, wow.
David isn't Christian because Christianity happened way later, and still I wonder how come some people think it's ok to kill Jesus when what did Jesus do? Nothing; all Jesus did was claim to be King. Wow, what's a huge deal about this to cause being killed for? That makes no sense at all. Who cares if Jesus claims this? How come there was no freedom of speech back when?
So what if someone claims they'll be king? Because many people claim this and maybe even try to be king as well.
How is aiming to be King a sin? How is that?
Christianity is the most confusing religion to the extreme.
All a person did was claim to be king, and that caused them to be killed? No freedom of speech how come? Even Krishna was threatened that if he's born a male how come, fearing he'll be king? Who feared this, Kamsa and Jarasandha? Do you see the pattern, all fearing who'll be the King, and so people feared if Jesus will be King, same pattern is this?
How come John never claims to be King and he gets his head chopped off? What did John do, compared to Jesus? Both died for what reasons?
I think this is abuse of what Jesus and John went through. But some think this is ok. How come?
Why didn't David suffer the same fate as John and Jesus?
David claims to be king, and he made it as king. How come, compared to Jesus and John?
How come David was never killed?
How come Jews fear if Jesus will become King? Compared to any fears Jews have if David becomes King, who cares who's king who cares? Do you actually really care?
Plus, who's really king now, who?
Would you ever seek to be King or Queen, and if so, how come?
