Ezekiel
Chapter 38
These next two
chapters, 38 and 39, tell of a coming northern confederacy of nations
who will invade the Promised Land.
Prophecy
Against Gog
And
the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Eze. 38:1
Israel
has been trampled underfoot by her enemies, but God will intervene in
the future to insure her safety. He will defend His people and judge
her enemies in distant countries (judgment on the nearby countries
had already been cited, chaps. 25-32).
Some
of the countries mentioned in Eze.38:1-23 and Eze. 39:1-29 had
already been identified as trading partners with Tyre.
We must look at this
from the standpoint of future prophecy, because the things mentioned
in the following verses have not happened yet. This prophecy is for
the day of the Lord. Some call it the time of the end. This prophecy
is primarily spoken against Gog in the land of Magog.
