Baal: falsity rooted in evil (specifically the loves of self and the world). Prophets: teachers, or the teachings themselves. A Mountain: an elevated, interior state of mind, esp. one of love or the heart. Carmel: lit, a fruitful place, known for its vineyards; thus the spiritual person. An Altar: worship (thus life).
