2305,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,patron_of,ENT_STORM,medium,"Kemosh's warrior function and Hellenistic equation with Ares suggest a storm/war deity typology; not directly described as a storm deity in surviving Moabite sources but inferred from the divine anger / lightning metaphor pattern in the Mesha Stele. DDD Bible ""Chemosh"" entry.",SRC_DDD_BIBLE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2306,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,patron_of,ENT_WAR,high,"Mesha Stele: Kemosh commands military campaigns (""Go, take Nebo""), receives the ḥērem spoils of battle, and is credited with both Moab's defeat (divine anger) and its victory (divine favour). The closest ancient parallel to a divine war commander in a national-deity context.",SRC_MESHA_STELE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2307,ENT_MOA_ASHTAR_KEMOSH,cult_form_of,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,medium,"The compound name Ashtar-Kemosh (Mesha Stele line 17) most plausibly represents Kemosh in a specific warrior/destructive cult manifestation — the same deity in his ḥērem (sacred destruction) aspect. The Ashtar element (Ugaritic Athtar, the warrior Venus) qualifies Kemosh's function in the context of sacred battle. Dearman (1989) pp. 118-120.",SRC_MESHA_STELE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2308,ENT_MOA_ASHTAR_KEMOSH,aligned_with,ENT_CAN_ASTARTE,medium,The Ashtar element of Ashtar-Kemosh shares its divine name with Ugaritic Athtar and the broader Astarte/Ishtar tradition. The warrior aspect of the Astarte-cycle deity is the element relevant here. Cross (1973) p. 229.,SRC_CROSS_CANAANITE_MYTH,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2309,ENT_AMM_MILKOM,patron_of,ENT_WAR,medium,"Milkom is presented as the divine patron of Ammon's territorial claims in Jeremiah 49:1 (""Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then has Milkom dispossessed Gad?"") — the same structure as Kemosh's patronage of Moabite territory. DDD Bible ""Milcom"" entry.",SRC_DDD_BIBLE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2310,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,aligned_with,ENT_AMM_MILKOM,high,"Kemosh and Milkom share the same structural role as national ""divine patron"" deities in adjacent Iron Age kingdoms — both are credited with granting territory, demanding exclusive loyalty, and going into exile at national defeat. Judges 11:24 explicitly treats them as parallel: Jephthah argues ""Whatever Kemosh your god gives you to possess... that we will possess."" Cross (1973) p. 228.",SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2311,ENT_AMM_MILKOM,aligned_with,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,high,Milkom and Kemosh are structurally parallel national deities of adjacent kingdoms; Judges 11:24 treats them as exact parallels in divine territorial patronage. Cross (1973) p. 228.,SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2312,ENT_EDO_QOS,aligned_with,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,medium,"Qos is the Edomite national deity fulfilling the same structural role as Kemosh for Moab — supreme deity, divine patron of national sovereignty, theophoric element in royal personal names.

2313,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,opposed_by,ENT_ISR_YAHWEH,high,The Hebrew Bible consistently frames Kemosh as the principal divine opponent of Yahweh in the Transjordanian context. Judges 11:24 (Jephthah) presents the theological schema explicitly. Jeremiah 48 announces Kemosh's defeat and exile as Yahweh's judgment on Moab. The opposition is not ontological (Kemosh is not a chaos monster) but geopolitical-theological: competing national divine claims. Mesha Stele is the Moabite mirror image of the same claim structure.

2314,ENT_AMM_MILKOM,opposed_by,ENT_ISR_YAHWEH,high,"Milkom is framed in prophetic literature (Jeremiah 49, Zephaniah 1) as a divine patron whose claims over Ammonite territory oppose Yahweh's claims for Israel. The Deuteronomistic condemnation of Solomon's Milkom cult (1 Kings 11:5,33; 2 Kings 23:13) reflects the same theological polemic. DDD Bible ""Milcom.""",SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE,reviewed,PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2315,ENT_MOA_KEMOSH,reception_of,ENT_CAN_BAAL,medium,"Kemosh shares significant traits with Baal Hadad — war deity, storm associations, divine anger, conflict theology — and likely inherits his divine typology from the broader West Semitic Baal tradition. The Mesha Stele's rhetorical structure (divine anger → defeat → divine favour → victory) mirrors Baal-cycle theological grammar. Cross (1973) p. 229 notes Kemosh's Baal-type features.
