Mesha of Moab
Mesha, son of Kemosh‐yat(ti), was a Moabite king who led a successful revolt against the kingdom of Israel in the ninth century BCE . Probably both Mesha and his father had been chiefs of the Dibon tribe before assuming kingship over the whole of Moab.
Asherah
Asherah is the name of a Northwest Semitic mother goddess. In texts from Ugarit, she is portrayed as the spouse of the supreme god El and as mother of the gods; she is also called “Lady Asherah of the Sea. ” In the Ba'al cycle, she intercedes with El to provide a palace for Ba'al. As mother goddess, Asherah is to be distinguished from Astarte, the Canaanite fertility goddess.
Chemosh
Chemosh (Hebrew k e moš ) was the national god of Moab, the nation known as “the people of Chemosh” (Num 21:29; Jer 48:46) that flourished during the Iron Age in Transjordan.
Balaam
Balaam was a prophet from Transjordan who is attested in the Old and New Testament as well as in an eighth century BCE plaster inscription found in Jordan. According to Num 22–24, Balak, king of Moab, sends messengers to Balaam requesting him to curse the Israelites. Balaam refuses but after divine interference arrives in Moab. He makes it clear that he will say only what Yhwh wants him to say. Having received a divine message, he blesses Israel …
El
El is the northwest Semitic word for “deity.” In Canaan, it was also the name of the supreme god, the creator of all and the husband of the mother goddess Asherah. The other gods are his children, although Ba'al is called “son of Dagan.”
Anat
Anat is the name of a Northwest Semitic goddess of war, who is primarily known from texts from Syria. She was also popular in Egypt during the New Kingdom.

The Witch of Endor: I Samuel 28 in Rabbinic and Christian Exegesis Till 800 A.D
D'apres le Martyre de Pionius, les Juifs attribueraient la resurrection du Christ a la necromancie, a l'analogie de l'evocation de Samuel par la sorciere d'Endor. L'A. passe en revue et compare l'exegese de ce passage chez les Maitres juifs et chez les Peres de l'Eglise et conclut que, bien qu'on puisse distinguer fondamentalement l'exegese rabbinique et l'exegese chretienne du passage, les similitudes d'interpretation ne manquent pas
