Where this word comes from

From Arabic بَعْث (baʕṯ, “resurrection”), part of the party's official name, حِزْب البَعْث العَرَبِيّ الاِشْتِرَاكِيّ (ḥizb al-baʕṯ al-ʕarabiyy al-ištirākiyy, literally “the party of the Arab socialist resurrection”). The sequence ــَعْـ (aʿ) is often rendered as ⟨aa⟩ in English; compare Baalbek for بَعْلَبَكّ (baʕlabakk), the Kaaba for الكَعْبَة (al-kaʕba), Saad (name) for سَعْد (saʕd), or zaatar for زَعْتَر (zaʕtar).
