 The Babylonian Captivity - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
That the Judaism of Palestine required invigoration by an infusion of the zeal and enthusiasm which grew up in the Judaism of Babylonian, is manifest from the story of the Captivity.
It was in Cyrus, who brought about the fall of Babylon and ended the New Babylonian Empire in 539 BC, that the hopes of the exiles came to be centered.

 The Child in Assyria
We have the express testimony of the ancient historian, Megasthenes, as preserved by Abydenus, that it was "Belus" who "surrounded Babylon with a wall." * As "Bel," the Confounder, who began the city and tower of Babel, had to leave both unfinished, this could not refer to him.
Ninus is said to have been the son of Belus or Bel, and Bel is said to have been the founder of Babylon.
Now there was no reason to believe that Semiramis alone (though some have represented the matter so) built the battlements of Babylon.

 The Babylonian Legends of the Creation
There is reason for thinking that the original hero of the Legend was Enlil (Bel), the great god of Nippur (the Nafar, or Nufar of the Arab writers), and that when Babylon rose into power under the First Dynasty (about B.C. 2300), his position in the Legend was usurped at Babylon by Marduk.

 Nimrod, Mars and The Marduk Connection
Of the campaigns conducted in 812 and 811 the notices in the Eponym Canon 'against Chaldaea' and 'against Babylon,' supply the only record, but it is to be presumed that Shamshi-Adad entered the enemy's capital in the latter year, for the 'Synchronous History' speaks of his offering sacrifices in Babylon, Cuthah and Borsippa.
Under the name Apsu (P*S), Marduk became Poseidon (P*S*D*N) who founded Atlantis which was named after his son Atlas (T*L*S), the Babylonian Astalluhi (S*T*L*).

 The Two Babylons: The Deification of the Child
From the light reflected on Babylon by Egypt, as well as from the form of the extant images of the Babylonian child in the arms of the goddess-mother, we have every reason to believe that this was actually done.
It seems to have been now only when the dead hero was to be deified, that the secret Mysteries were set up.
Belus, says Berosus, commanded one of the gods to cut off his head, that from the blood thus shed by his own command and with his own consent, when mingled with the earth, new creatures might be formed, the first creation being represented as a sort of a failure.

 The Religion of Babylonia and Assyria - Chapter III
As this list replaces Anu by îlu, it indicates the rule of Enki or Êa, followed by that of Merodach, who, as has been shown, became the chief divinity of the Babylonian pantheon in consequence of Babylon having become the capital of the country.
As far as our knowledge goes, the doctrines incorporated in this legend would seem to show the final official development of the beliefs held by the Babylonians, due, in all probability, to the priests of Babylon after that city became the capital of the federated states.
The deity then cut off his own head, and the other gods mixed the blood, as it gushed out, with the earth, and from this men were formed.

Rouse in 1940 wrote an ironic end note to Book 40 of his edition of Nonnus ' Dionysiaca about a very syncretistic hymn sung by Dionysus to Tyrian Heracles, that is, to Ba‘al Melqart whom Dionysus identifies with Belus on the Euphrates (who should be Marduk!) and as a sun god:
This "Bel," then, being an important deity, must be the sun, the more so as some of the gods bearing that title may have been really solar.

In addition to materials given in the Bible itself, ancient accounts indicate that the wife of Nimrod, who founded the city of Babylon became the head of the so-called Babylonian mysteries which consisted of secret religious rites which were developed as a part of the worship of idols in Babylon.
"Babylonianism, then, represents everything which is opposed to God both politically and religiously.

 The Image of the Beast
In the old Babylonian Paganism, there was an image of the Beast from the sea; and when it is known what that image was, the question will, I think, be fairly decided.
If all this be so, who can fail to see that in the apostate community is to be found what precisely answers to the making and setting up in the heart of Christendom, of an "Image to the beast that had the wound by a sword and did live"?

If you trace them etymologically you are sure to find the root of every god (of the Aryan family) in Sanscrit, and many of the Semitic gods also, and that before the Aryans broke up towards the South and North.
The Tyrian god was Belus -- Babylonian Bel, and Bok means Light and Boga the sun.
Every Slavonian Deity can be traced back to India, and yet the word Bog, the Russian word for God, a derivation from Gosped, gosped in Hospodar or gospodar, "the Lord" seems to come right from the Babylonian Bel, Baal, or Bal.
