2284 Velnias ENT_BALT_VELNIAS opposed_by Perkūnas ENT_BALT_PERKUNAS high Velnias is the chthonic antagonist of Perkūnas in the cosmic battle myth; he flees into the earth, trees, and water to escape Perkūnas's lightning. Greimas (1992) pp. 121-150. Algirdas Julien Greimas, Of Gods and Men: Studies in Lithuanian Mythology (Indiana University Press, Bloomington, 1992; trans. Milda Newman and Joseph Fitzgerald) SRC_GREIMAS_LITHUANIAN reviewed Baltic Pre-Christian Period PER_BALT_PAGAN

2313 Kemosh ENT_MOA_KEMOSH opposed_by Yahweh 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. Cross (1973) pp. 228-229. The Hebrew Bible / Tanakh (primary text; Masoretic Text tradition; reference editions: Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia / Biblia Hebraica Quinta; citations by book, chapter, and verse) SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE reviewed Iron Age Transjordanian PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
2314 Milkom ENT_AMM_MILKOM opposed_by Yahweh 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." The Hebrew Bible / Tanakh (primary text; Masoretic Text tradition; reference editions: Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia / Biblia Hebraica Quinta; citations by book, chapter, and verse) SRC_HEBREW_BIBLE reviewed Iron Age Transjordanian PER_TRANSJORDAN_IRON_AGE
