If she ever was, there is no mention of it at all in the Bible. Chemosh

was a god in the land of the Moabites

this idol was not mentioned in the Book of Ruth. The Bible tells us that the Moabite

women were sent to seduce the Israelites men away from the God of Israel, for this reason the Moabites

were considered .
Numbers 25 - Israel's Sin with Moab

iii. "The sword of no stranger, the curse of no stranger had the power to damage Israel. Only it itself could bring misfortune, by seceding from God and his Law." (Rabbi Hirsch,

cited in Allen).

iv. "The Moabites

being now neighbours to the Israelites, and finding themselves unable to effect

their design against Israel by war and witchcraft, they now fell another way to work." (Poole) In the same way, Satan's violence and sorcery can have no lasting influence on the believer; but if he can lead us into sin, we can be destroyed.
