Note 747 — Chapter IV · (continued 2)
Reading edition
Dillmann (loc. cit.) combines shamē with Ashtart, as if the sense were 'the heavenly Ashtart of Baal'—an impossible rendering; but he also interprets the phrase to mean 'Ashtart the consort of the heavenly Baal.' Halévy, Mélanges, p. 33; Ed. Meyer, in Roscher's Lexikon, article "Astarte."
