The Word of God is our source of truth Dagon

Dagon Easton's Bible Dictionary Dagon Little fish; diminutive from dag = a fish, the fish-god; the national god of the Philistines (Judges 16:23). This idol had the body of a fish with the head and hands of a man. It was an Assyrio-Babylonian deity, the worship of which was introduced among the Philistines through Chaldea. The most famous of the temples of Dagon were at Gaza (Judges 16:23-30) and Ashdod (1 Samuel 5:1-7). (See FISH.) ❤️Hitchcock's Names Dictionary Dagon corn; a fish Naves Topical Index Dagon An idol of the Philistines Judges 16:23; 1 Samuel 5:1-12 Temple of 1 Chronicles 10:10 Smith's Bible Dictionary Dagon (a fish), apparently the masculine, (1 Samuel 5:3,4) correlative of Atargatis, was the national god of the Philistines. The most famous temples of Dagon were at Gaza, (Judges 16:21-30) and Ashdod. (1 Samuel 5:5,6; 1 Chronicles 10:10) The latter temple was destroyed by Jonathan in the Maccab'an wars. Traces of the worship of Dagon likewise appear in the names Caphar-dagon (near Jamnia) and Beth-dagon in Judah, (Joshua 15:41) and Asher. (Joshua 19:27) Dagon was represented with the face and hands of a man and the tail of a fish. (1 Samuel 5:5) The fish-like form was a natural emblem of fruitfulness, and as such was likely to be adopted by seafaring tribes in the representation of their gods. Easton's Bible Dictionary Dagon's House (1 Samuel 5:2), or Beth-dagon, as elsewhere rendered (Joshua 15:41; 19:27), was the sanctuary or temple of Dagon. The Beth-dagon of Joshua 15:41 was one of the cities of the tribe of Judah, in the lowland or plain which stretches westward. It has not been identified. The Beth-dagon of Joshua 19:27 was one of the border cities of Asher. That of 1 Chronicles 10:10 was in the western half-tribe of Manasseh, where the Philistines, after their victory at Gilboa, placed Saul's head in the temple of their god. (Comp. 1 Samuel 31:8-13).
