bêl- v. “to love (affection, familial love)” (Biconsonantal-verb)
In the current attempt to disambiguate it from bêl- (“to befriend, love”), zir- refers to eros (love between sexes) and agappe (charity) under the first commandment to “love your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and body,” while bêl- refers to storge (affection) and philia (friendship) under the second commandment “thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself”.
An example of the above definition is Azrubêl (“Sea-Lover”).
