:
As far as I know only one other contemporary god is mentioned, and has since been interpreted as an angel or demon. There are some relics in the Old Testament that hark back to the days before the Israelites became properly monotheistic. Other gods are often discussed as though they are real. The Israelites just weren't supposed to worship them.
Ba'al, Moloch and Asherah are referenced in the Old Testament as 'false gods', Moloch is also referred to as a demon I think.

@MM - I spent the longest time thinking the Devil was winning.
