Etymology
Per Trubachyev, the most likely etymology is from Proto-Indo-European *bʰeh₃g-. Cognate with Ancient Greek φώγω (phṓgō, “to roast”) and Proto-Germanic *bakaną (“to bake”).
A relation with Sanskrit भजति (bhajati, “to distribute”) and Slavic forms like *bogatъ (“rich”), *bogъ (“God”) (all from *bʰeh₂g-) is less likely.
