14 Sometime after the start of the great tribulation, “the kings of the entire inhabited earth” will form a coalition of nations. (Rev. 16:13, 14; 19:19) That coalition becomes what the Scriptures call “Gog of the land of Magog.” (Ezek. 38:2) That coalition of nations will make one final all-out assault on God’s people. What will provoke the attack? Speaking of this time, the apostle John saw a storm of unusually large hailstones raining down on God’s enemies. That symbolic hailstorm may take the form of a hard-hitting judgment message delivered by Jehovah’s people. It could be that this message provokes Gog of Magog into attacking God’s people with the intention of wiping them off the earth.—Rev. 16:21.

The prophet Ezekiel foresaw the final battle of God against man’s governments. In chapters 38 and 39 of his book, he describes God’s war against Gog of the land of Magog. Eze 38:2

 This is widely recognized as a prophecy of the last days. A careful study of the Scriptures reveals that here Gog is a symbolic name for that same spirit rebel, Satan, who led Adam and Eve in a course of disobedience to God.

 The defeat of that spirit along with his forces, longtime enemies of God, is actually the initial part of the fulfillment of the original promise that the seed would, symbolically speaking, fatally bruise the serpent, Satan, in the head.  Gen 3:15

Some tribe that probably didn't exist. Just a schizo delusion created by an old fool who spent too much time in the desert sun.

"these forces of evil are set in motion by the malice of one individual, gog, who has the traits of all of Israel's persecuters.  He is mentioned in Sib Or, 3 and in the talmudic literature, where the final war also comes after the messianic era has begun.  He leads his hordes out of the "north" whence so many evils of Israel have come, particularly invating armies.  His army is composed of elements from the four corners of the world.  This enemy is all the enemies of whom God "spoke in ancient times through my servents, the prophets of Israel".

Postscript.  I have heard  commentaries where some believe the enemy from the north is Russia, and that Magog could be Moscow.  This is speculation.

Nothing. Just more junk that the Bible tries to give life to.

It appears that Gog of Magog refers to a coalition of nations that will try to wipe out God’s people after the great tribulation begins.

It's unclear.  The words appear in various parts of the Old Testament and in Revelation.  In the Ezekiel reference Gog is the ruler of a land called Magog.  Elsewhere in the Bible, Magog is a person.  It was probably an attempt at Philistine words and used pejoratively.  English contains a few names mispronounced from other languages, but Y!A stars them out.

And in Revelation


First of all, Gog and Magog are the names of two OT men.


Now see.....


Ezekiel 38:2-3 KJV — Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:


Meshech was northern nations including the Moschi, a people on the borders of Colchis and Armenia.


Tubal was the Tibareni, a nation of Asia Minor by the Euxine Sea.



The country of Gog has been supposed to be the name of a district in the wild north-east steppes of Central Asia, north of the Hindu-Kush, now a part of Turkestan, a region about 2,000 miles north-east of Nineveh.



Magog means region of Gog. It is the name of a nation, probably some Scythian or Tartar tribe descended from Japheth. They are described as skilled horsemen, and expert in the use of the bow. The Latin father Jerome says that this word denotes "Scythian nations, fierce and innumerable, who live beyond the Caucasus and the Lake Maeotis, and near the Caspian Sea, and spread out even onward to India." Perhaps the name "represents the Assyrian Mat Gugi, or 'country of Gugu,' the Gyges of the Greeks" (Sayce's Races, etc.).


In Revelation 20, Gog and Magog are the countries that Satan incited to rise up against Jerusalem.
