Meaning of the baby name CHEMOSH.

  

CHEMOSH.  Biblical.  [Hebrew and Moabite Kemosh = "subduer," from Kamash = "to subdue"].

    An idol worshipped by the Moabites and by the Ammonites (Numb. xxi. 29; Judg. xi. 24), especially by the former, Molech being the distinctive god of the Ammonites.  Solomon erected a high place for Chemosh "in the hill that is before Jerusalem" (1 Kings xi. 7).  This was afterwards defiled by Josiah (2 Kings xxiii. 13; cf. Jer. xlviii. 7). (The Sunday School Teacher's Bible Manual, Hunter, 1894).
