Comentário sobre Isaías 46:1
כָּרַ֥ע בֵּל֙ קֹרֵ֣ס נְב֔וֹ הָיוּ֙ עֲצַבֵּיהֶ֔ם לַחַיָּ֖ה וְלַבְּהֵמָ֑ה נְשֻׂאֹתֵיכֶ֣ם עֲמוּס֔וֹת מַשָּׂ֖א לַעֲיֵפָֽה׃
Bel se encurva, Nebo se abaixa; os seus ídolos são postos sobre os animais, sobre as bestas; essas cargas que costumáveis levar são pesadas para as bestas já cansadas.
Rashi on Isaiah
Bel squats; Nebo soils himself The deities of Babylon squatted and soiled themselves. This is an expression of ridicule of the idols, like one who suffers from diarrhea and does not manage to sit down on the seat in the privy before he discharges with a splash.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
Bel. The idol of the Babylonians; the same is the case with Nebo. The latter is explained by some to signify the sun.
