Let us consider a few things before we get into the fullness of Ezekiel 38.
"Gog"
speaks
of
"the
prophetic
prince
of
Rosh,
Meshech
and
Tubal,
and
Magog".
"prince"
is
a
'governmental
term'.
"the
land
of
Magog"
speaks
of
"a
barbarous
northern
region".
"Meshech"
speaks
of
"a
son
of
Japheth,
grandson
of
Noah,
and
progenitor
of
peoples
to
the
north
of
Israel
descendants
of Meshech often
mentioned
in
connection
with
Tubal,
Magog,
and
other
northern
nations
including
the Moschi,
a
people
on
the
borders
of
Colchis
and
Armenia"
"Tubal"
speaks
of
"a
son
of
Japheth
and
a
grandson
of
Noah,
territory:
a
region
in
east
Asia
Minor;
perhaps
nearly
equal
to
Cappadocia"
Esau,
who
did
not
care
enough
for
his
heritage
and
birthright,
but
sold
these
things
for
a
bowl
of
"red
pottage",
went
into
this
land.
And
established
a
people
and
a
kingdom
(government).
Esau,
by
bloodline,
was
the
brother
of
Jacob
(Israel).
Gen
25:19-34
19
And
these
are
the
generations
of
Isaac,
Abraham's
son:
Abraham
begat
Isaac:
20
And
Isaac
was
forty
years
old
when
he
took
Rebekah
to
wife,
the
daughter
of
Bethuel
the
Syrian
of
Padan-aram,
the
sister
to
Laban
the
Syrian.
21
And
Isaac
intreated
the
LORD
for
his
wife,
because
she
was
barren:
and
the
LORD
was
intreated
of
him,
and
Rebekah
his
wife
conceived.
22
And
the
children
struggled
together
within
her;
and
she
said,
If
it
be
so,
why
am
I
thus?
And
she
went
to
inquire
of
the
LORD.
23
And
the
LORD
said
unto
her,
Two
nations
are
in
thy
womb,
and
two
manner
of
people
shall
be
separated
from
thy
bowels;
and
the
one
people
shall
be
stronger
than
the
other
people;
and
the
elder
shall
serve
the
younger.
24
And
when
her
days
to
be
delivered
were
fulfilled,
behold,
there
were
twins
in
her
womb.
25
And
the
first
came
out
red,
all
over
like
an
hairy
garment;
and
they
called
his
name
Esau.
26
And
after
that
came
his
brother
out,
and
his
hand
took
hold
on
Esau's
heel;
and
his
name
was
called
Jacob:
and
Isaac
was
threescore
years
old
when
she
bare
them.
27
And
the
boys
grew:
and
Esau
was
a
cunning
hunter,
a
man
of
the
field;
and
Jacob
was
a
plain
man,
dwelling
in
tents.
28
And
Isaac
loved
Esau,
because
he
did
eat
of
his
venison:
but
Rebekah
loved
Jacob.
29
And
Jacob
sod
pottage:
and
Esau
came
from
the
field,
and
he
was
faint:
30
And
Esau
said
to
Jacob,
Feed
me,
I
pray
thee,
with
that
same
red
pottage;
for
I
am
faint:
therefore
was
his
name
called
Edom.
31
And
Jacob
said,
Sell
me
this
day
thy
birthright.
32
And
Esau
said,
Behold,
I
am
at
the
point
to
die:
and
what
profit
shall
this
birthright
do
to
me?
33
And
Jacob
said,
Swear
to
me
this
day;
and
he
sware
unto
him:
and
he
sold
his
birthright
unto
Jacob.
34
Then
Jacob
gave
Esau
bread
and
pottage
of lentiles;
and
he
did
eat
and
drink,
and
rose
up,
and
went
his
way:
thus
Esau
despised
his
birthright.
(KJV)
Gen
28:6-9
6
When
Esau
saw
that
Isaac
had
blessed
Jacob,
and
sent
him
away
to
Padan-aram,
to
take
him
a
wife
from
thence;
and
that
as
he
blessed
him
he
gave
him
a
charge,
saying,
Thou
shalt
not
take
a
wife
of
the
daughters
of
Canaan;
7
And
that
Jacob
obeyed
his
father
and
his
mother,
and
was
gone
to
Padan-aram;
Gen
28:
8
And
Esau
seeing
that
the
daughters
of
Canaan
pleased
not
Isaac
his
father;
9
Then
went
Esau
unto
Ishmael,
and
took
unto
the
wives
which
he
had
Mahalath
the
daughter
of
Ishmael
Abraham's
son,
the
sister
of Nebajoth,
to
be
his
wife.
(KJV)
Gen
36:1-43
1
Now
these
are
the
generations
of
Esau,
who
is
Edom.
2
Esau
took
his
wives
of
the
daughters
of
Canaan;
Adah
the
daughter
of
Elon
the
Hittite,
and
Aholibamah
the
daughter
of
Anah
the
daughter
of
Zibeon
the Hivite;
3
And
Bashemath
Ishmael's
daughter,
sister
of Nebajoth.
4
And
Adah
bare
to
Esau
Eliphaz;
and
Bashemath
bare Reuel;
5
And
Aholibamah
bare Jeush,
and Jaalam,
and
Korah:
these
are
the
sons
of
Esau,
which
were
born
unto
him
in
the
land
of
Canaan.
6
And
Esau
took
his
wives,
and
his
sons,
and
his
daughters,
and
all
the
persons
of
his
house,
and
his
cattle,
and
all
his
beasts,
and
all
his
substance,
which
he
had
got
in
the
land
of
Canaan;
and
went
into
the
country
from
the
face
of
his
brother
Jacob.
7
For
their
riches
were
more
than
that
they
might
dwell
together;
and
the
land
wherein
they
were
strangers
could
not
bear
them
because
of
their
cattle.
8
Thus
dwelt
Esau
in
mount
Seir:
Esau
is
Edom.
9
And
these
are
the
generations
of
Esau
the
father
of
the
Edomites
in
mount
Seir:
10
These
are
the
names
of
Esau's
sons;
Eliphaz
the
son
of
Adah
the
wife
of
Esau,
Reuel
the
son
of
Bashemath
the
wife
of
Esau.
11
And
the
sons
of
Eliphaz
were
Teman,
Omar, Zepho,
and Gatam,
and Kenaz.
12
And
Timna
was
concubine
to
Eliphaz
Esau's
son;
and
she
bare
to
Eliphaz
Amalek:
these
were
the
sons
of
Adah
Esau's
wife.
13
And
these
are
the
sons
of Reuel; Nahath,
and
Zerah,
Shammah,
and Mizzah:
these
were
the
sons
of
Bashemath
Esau's
wife.
14
And
these
were
the
sons
of Aholibamah,
the
daughter
of
Anah
the
daughter
of
Zibeon,
Esau's
wife:
and
she
bare
to
Esau Jeush,
and Jaalam,
and
Korah.
15
These
were
dukes
of
the
sons
of
Esau:
the
sons
of
Eliphaz
the
firstborn
son
of
Esau;
duke
Teman,
duke
Omar,
duke Zepho,
duke Kenaz,
16
Duke
Korah,
duke Gatam,
and
duke
Amalek:
these
are
the
dukes
that
came
of
Eliphaz
in
the
land
of
Edom;
these
were
the
sons
of
Adah.
17
And
these
are
the
sons
of
Reuel
Esau's
son;
duke Nahath,
duke
Zerah,
duke
Shammah,
duke Mizzah:
these
are
the
dukes
that
came
of
Reuel
in
the
land
of
Edom;
these
are
the
sons
of
Bashemath
Esau's
wife.
18
And
these
are
the
sons
of
Aholibamah
Esau's
wife;
duke Jeush,
duke Jaalam,
duke
Korah:
these
were
the
dukes
that
came
of
Aholibamah
the
daughter
of Anah,
Esau's
wife.
19
These
are
the
sons
of
Esau,
who
is
Edom,
and
these
are
their
dukes.
20
These
are
the
sons
of
Seir
the Horite,
who
inhabited
the
land; Lotan,
and Shobal,
and Zibeon,
and Anah,
21
And Dishon,
and Ezer,
and Dishan:
these
are
the
dukes
of
the
Horites,
the
children
of
Seir
in
the
land
of
Edom.
22
And
the
children
of
Lotan
were
Hori
and Hemam;
and
Lotan's
sister
was Timna.
23
And
the
children
of
Shobal
were
these; Alvan,
and Manahath,
and
Ebal, Shepho,
and Onam.
24
And
these
are
the
children
of Zibeon;
both Ajah,
and Anah:
this
was
that
Anah
that
found
the
mules
in
the
wilderness,
as
he
fed
the
asses
of
Zibeon
his
father.
25
And
the
children
of
Anah
were
these; Dishon,
and
Aholibamah
the
daughter
of
Anah.
26
And
these
are
the
children
of Dishon; Hemdan,
and Eshban,
and Ithran,
and
Cheran.
27
The
children
of
Ezer
are
these;
Bilhan,
and Zaavan,
and Akan.
28
The
children
of
Dishan
are
these;
Uz,
and Aran.
29
These
are
the
dukes
that
came
of
the
Horites;
duke Lotan,
duke Shobal,
duke
Zibeon,
duke Anah,
30
Duke Dishon,
duke Ezer,
duke Dishan:
these
are
the
dukes
that
came
of
Hori,
among
their
dukes
in
the
land
of
Seir.
31
And
these
are
the
kings
that
reigned
in
the
land
of
Edom,
before
there
reigned
any
king
over
the
children
of
Israel.
32
And
Bela
the
son
of
Beor
reigned
in
Edom:
and
the
name
of
his
city
was
Dinhabah.
33
And
Bela
died,
and
Jobab
the
son
of
Zerah
of
Bozrah
reigned
in
his
stead.
34
And
Jobab
died,
and
Husham
of
the
land
of
Temani
reigned
in
his
stead.
35
And
Husham
died,
and
Hadad
the
son
of Bedad,
who
smote
Midian
in
the
field
of
Moab,
reigned
in
his
stead:
and
the
name
of
his
city
was Avith.
36
And
Hadad
died,
and
Samlah
of
Masrekah
reigned
in
his
stead.
37
And
Samlah
died,
and
Saul
of
Rehoboth
by
the
river
reigned
in
his
stead.
38
And
Saul
died,
and
Baalhanan
the
son
of
Achbor
reigned
in
his
stead.
39
And
Baalhanan
the
son
of
Achbor
died,
and
Hadar
reigned
in
his
stead:
and
the
name
of
his
city
was Pau;
and
his
wife's
name
was Mehetabel,
the
daughter
of
Matred,
the
daughter
of Mezahab.
40
And
these
are
the
names
of
the
dukes
that
came
of
Esau,
according
to
their
families,
after
their
places,
by
their
names;
duke Timnah,
duke Alvah,
duke Jetheth,
41
Duke Aholibamah,
duke
Elah,
duke Pinon,
42
Duke Kenaz,
duke
Teman,
duke Mibzar,
43
Duke Magdiel,
duke Iram:
these
be
the
dukes
of
Edom,
according
to
their
habitations
in
the
land
of
their
possession:
he
is
Esau
the
father
of
the
Edomites.
(KJV)
Ezek
32:1-32
1
And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
twelfth
year,
in
the
twelfth
month,
in
the
first
day
of
the
month,
that
the
word
of
the
LORD
came
unto
me,
saying,
2
Son
of
man,
take
up
a
lamentation
for
Pharaoh
king
of
Egypt,
and
say
unto
him,
Thou
art
like
a
young
lion
of
the
nations,
and
thou
art
as
a
whale
in
the
seas:
and
thou
camest
forth
with
thy
rivers,
and
troubledst
the
waters
with
thy
feet,
and
fouledst
their
rivers.
3
Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
I
will
therefore
spread
out
my
net
over
thee
with
a
company
of
many
people;
and
they
shall
bring
thee
up
in
my
net.
4
Then
will
I
leave
thee
upon
the
land,
I
will
cast
thee
forth
upon
the
open
field,
and
will
cause
all
the
fowls
of
the
heaven
to
remain
upon
thee,
and
I
will
fill
the
beasts
of
the
whole
earth
with
thee.
5
And
I
will
lay
thy
flesh
upon
the
mountains,
and
fill
the
valleys
with
thy
height.
6
I
will
also
water
with
thy
blood
the
land
wherein
thou swimmest,
even
to
the
mountains;
and
the
rivers
shall
be
full
of
thee.
7
And
when
I
shall
put
thee
out,
I
will
cover
the
heaven,
and
make
the
stars
thereof
dark;
I
will
cover
the
sun
with
a
cloud,
and
the
moon
shall
not
give
her
light.
8
All
the
bright
lights
of
heaven
will
I
make
dark
over
thee,
and
set
darkness
upon
thy
land,
saith
the
Lord
GOD.
9
I
will
also
vex
the
hearts
of
many
people,
when
I
shall
bring
thy
destruction
among
the
nations,
into
the
countries
which
thou
hast
not
known.
10
Yea,
I
will
make
many
people
amazed
at
thee,
and
their
kings
shall
be
horribly
afraid
for
thee,
when
I
shall
brandish
my
sword
before
them;
and
they
shall
tremble
at
every
moment,
every
man
for
his
own
life,
in
the
day
of
thy
fall.
11
For
thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
The
sword
of
the
king
of
Babylon
shall
come
upon
thee.
12
By
the
swords
of
the
mighty
will
I
cause
thy
multitude
to
fall,
the
terrible
of
the
nations,
all
of
them:
and
they
shall
spoil
the
pomp
of
Egypt,
and
all
the
multitude
thereof
shall
be
destroyed.
13
I
will
destroy
also
all
the
beasts
thereof
from
beside
the
great
waters;
neither
shall
the
foot
of
man
trouble
them
any
more,
nor
the
hoofs
of
beasts
trouble
them.
14
Then
will
I
make
their
waters
deep,
and
cause
their
rivers
to
run
like
oil,
saith
the
Lord
GOD.
15
When
I
shall
make
the
land
of
Egypt
desolate,
and
the
country
shall
be
destitute
of
that
whereof
it
was
full,
when
I
shall
smite
all
them
that
dwell
therein,
then
shall
they
know
that
I
am
the
LORD.
16
This
is
the
lamentation
wherewith
they
shall
lament
her:
the
daughters
of
the
nations
shall
lament
her:
they
shall
lament
for
her,
even
for
Egypt,
and
for
all
her
multitude,
saith
the
Lord
GOD.
17
It
came
to
pass
also
in
the
twelfth
year,
in
the
fifteenth
day
of
the
month,
that
the
word
of
the
LORD
came
unto
me,
saying,
18
Son
of
man,
wail
for
the
multitude
of
Egypt,
and
cast
them
down,
even
her,
and
the
daughters
of
the
famous
nations,
unto
the
nether
parts
of
the
earth,
with
them
that
go
down
into
the
pit.
19
Whom
dost
thou
pass
in
beauty?
go
down,
and
be
thou
laid
with
the
uncircumcised.
20
They
shall
fall
in
the
midst
of
them
that
are
slain
by
the
sword:
she
is
delivered
to
the
sword:
draw
her
and
all
her
multitudes.
21
The
strong
among
the
mighty
shall
speak
to
him
out
of
the
midst
of
hell
with
them
that
help
him:
they
are
gone
down,
they
lie
uncircumcised,
slain
by
the
sword.
22
Asshur
is
there
and
all
her
company:
his
graves
are
about
him:
all
of
them
slain,
fallen
by
the
sword:
23
Whose
graves
are
set
in
the
sides
of
the
pit,
and
her
company
is
round
about
her
grave:
all
of
them
slain,
fallen
by
the
sword,
which
caused
terror
in
the
land
of
the
living.
24
There
is
Elam
and
all
her
multitude
round
about
her
grave,
all
of
them
slain,
fallen
by
the
sword,
which
are
gone
down
uncircumcised
into
the
nether
parts
of
the
earth,
which
caused
their
terror
in
the
land
of
the
living;
yet
have
they
borne
their
shame
with
them
that
go
down
to
the
pit.
25
They
have
set
her
a
bed
in
the
midst
of
the
slain
with
all
her
multitude:
her
graves
are
round
about
him:
all
of
them
uncircumcised,
slain
by
the
sword:
though
their
terror
was
caused
in
the
land
of
the
living,
yet
have
they
borne
their
shame
with
them
that
go
down
to
the
pit:
he
is
put
in
the
midst
of
them
that
be
slain.
26
There
is
Meshech,
Tubal,
and
all
her
multitude:
her
graves
are
round
about
him:
all
of
them
uncircumcised,
slain
by
the
sword,
though
they
caused
their
terror
in
the
land
of
the
living.
27
And
they
shall
not
lie
with
the
mighty
that
are
fallen
of
the
uncircumcised,
which
are
gone
down
to
hell
with
their
weapons
of
war:
and
they
have
laid
their
swords
under
their
heads,
but
their
iniquities
shall
be
upon
their
bones,
though
they
were
the
terror
of
the
mighty
in
the
land
of
the
living.
28
Yea,
thou
shalt
be
broken
in
the
midst
of
the
uncircumcised,
and
shalt
lie
with
them
that
are
slain
with
the

There
is
Edom,
her
kings,
and
all
her
princes,
which
with
their
might
are
laid
by
them
that
were
slain
by
the
sword:
they
shall
lie
with
the
uncircumcised,
and
with
them
that
go
down
to
the
pit.
30
There
be
the
princes
of
the
north,
all
of
them,
and
all
the Zidonians,
which
are
gone
down
with
the
slain;
with
their
terror
they
are
ashamed
of
their
might;
and
they
lie
uncircumcised
with
them
that
be
slain
by
the
sword,
and
bear
their
shame
with
them
that
go
down
to
the
pit.
31
Pharaoh
shall
see
them,
and
shall
be
comforted
over
all
his
multitude,
even
Pharaoh
and
all
his
army
slain
by
the
sword,
saith
the
Lord
GOD.
32
For
I
have
caused
my
terror
in
the
land
of
the
living:
and
he
shall
be
laid
in
the
midst
of
the
uncircumcised
with
them
that
are
slain
with
the
sword,
even
Pharaoh
and
all
his
multitude,
saith
the
Lord
GOD.
(KJV)
Ezek
38:1-23
1
And
the
word
of
the
LORD
came
unto
me,
saying,
2
Son
of
man,
set
thy
face
against
Gog,
the
land
of
Magog,
the
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal,
and
prophesy
against
him,
3
And
say,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
Behold,
I
am
against
thee,
O
Gog,
the
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal:
FATHER
is
speaking
to
Ezekiel.
And,
HE
calls
Ezekiel
"Son
of
man".
FATHER
is
speaking
to
HIS
servants
today;
HIS,
who
are
also
called
"Son
of
man",
being
HIS
children,
doing
HIS
Will.
What
has
YHVH
said
to
do?
"set
thy
face
against
Gog,
the
land
of
Magog,
the
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal,
and
prophesy
against
him"
Let
us
read
this
from
the
Interlinear:
Son
of
man,
set
thy
face
against
Gog,
the
land
of
Magog,
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal,
and
prophesy
against
him!
Originally,
this
was
written
as
an
emphatic
command...note
the
'exclamation
point'
that
was
originally
written.
What
was
Ezekiel
to
say
as
he
prophesied
against
this
"chief
prince"?
"Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
Behold,
I
am
against
thee,
O
Gog,
the
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal"
This
was
originally
written
as
one
sentence
(no
colon).
We
can
see
this
from
the
Interlinear:
And
say,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
Behold,
I
against
thee,
O
Gog,
chief
prince
of
Meshech
and
Tubal.
As
we
can
see,
YHVH
is
not
happy
with
these
of
this
'government'.
Yet,
HE
will
make
use
of
them
as
an
instrument
to
correct
Israel
and
the
mixed
multitude.
Ezek
38:
4
And
I
will
turn
thee
back,
and
put
hooks
into
thy
jaws,
and
I
will
bring
thee
forth,
and
all
thine
army,
horses
and
horsemen,
all
of
them
clothed
with
all
sorts
of
armour,
even
a
great
company
with
bucklers
and
shields,
all
of
them
handling
swords:
5
Persia,
Ethiopia,
and
Libya
with
them;
all
of
them
with
shield
and
helmet:
6
Gomer,
and
all
his
bands;
the
house
of
Togarmah
of
the
north
quarters,
and
all
his
bands:
and
many
people
with
thee.
"And
I
will
turn
thee
back"
Of
what
does
this
speak?
As
we
have
seen
in
this
last
generation,
that
which
was
once
known
as
the
'Soviet
Union'
and/or
the
'Soviet
Block'
was
broken
up.
Yet,
for
YHVH'S
use,
as
an
instrument
to
correct
HIS
children,
FATHER
shall
cause
these
countries
to
bind
themselves
together
again
for
a
short
time.
For
what
purpose?
And,
through
what
method?
For
the
purpose
of
war,
"I
will
bring
thee
forth,
and
all
thine
army,
horses
and
horsemen,
all
of
them
clothed
with
all
sorts
of
armour,
even
a
great
company
with
bucklers
and
shields,
all
of
them
handling
swords".
YHVH
will
cause
this
to
occur,
"and
put
hooks
into
thy
jaws".
The
"hooks"
speak
of
a
nose
ring
with
a
chain,
which
YHVH
shall
pull,
and
they
will
have
to
follow.
Now,
these
governments
have
'earned'
this
position
even
before
this
earth
age.
(Remember
the
3rd
who
would
not
make
a
stand
on
the
right
for
YHVH,
or
the
left
for
Satan?)
They
have,
in
this
earth
age,
only
cared
about
the
things
of
this
world,
and
what
they
want
and
can
get
for
themselves.
But,
wait,
the
former
Soviet
Union
countries
are
not
the
only
ones
that
YHVH
will
use
to
correct
HIS
children.
(HE
will
use
not
only
the
3rd
who
aligned
neither
right
nor
left,
but
those
who
look
to
another
'god'
or
'gods'.)
FATHER
will
cause
"Persia,
Ethiopia,
and
Libya"
to
align
themselves
with
these
northern
countries,
as
well.
And,
they
shall
also
prepare
themselves
to
wage
war.
"Persia"
speaks
of
some
of
the
countries
once
known
as
"the
Persian
Empire
which
encompassed
the
territory
from
India
on
the
east
to
Egypt
and
Thrace
on
the
west,
and
included,
besides
portions
of
Europe
and
Africa,
the
whole
of
western
Asia
between
the
Black
Sea,
the
Caucasus,
the
Caspian
and
the
Jaxartes
on
the
north,
the
Arabian
desert,
the
Persian
Gulf
and
the
Indian
Ocean
on
the
south.
Persia
proper
was
bounded
on
the
west
by
Susiana
or
Elam,
on
the
north
by
Media,
on
the
south
by
the
Persian
Gulf
and
on
the
east
by
Carmania."
"Ethiopia,
and
Libya"
speak
of
southern
and
northern
Africa,
respectively.
Plus,
"Gomer,
and
all
his
bands;
the
house
of
Togarmah
of
the
north
quarters,
and
all
his
bands:
and
many
people
with
thee."
We
are
being
shown
some
of
'wayward
Israel'
through
"Gomer,
and
all
his
bands".
And,
Armenia,
whose
people
had
historically
traded
with
Tyre.
Ezek
38:
7
Be
thou
prepared,
and
prepare
for
thyself,
thou,
and
all
thy
company
that
are
assembled
unto
thee,
and
be
thou
a
guard
unto
them.
8
After
many
days
thou
shalt
be
visited:
in
the
latter
years
thou
shalt
come
into
the
land
that
is
brought
back
from
the
sword,
and
is
gathered
out
of
many
people,
against
the
mountains
of
Israel,
which
have
been
always
waste:
but
it
is
brought
forth
out
of
the
nations,
and
they
shall
dwell
safely
all
of
them.
What
has
this
said?
Again,
Our
FATHER,
YHVH,
is
pulling
the
nose
ring
chains
of
HIS
children's
enemies,
and
will
cause
them
to
do
that
which
HE
has
commanded.
Why?
They
did
these
things
before,
and
will
do
them
again.
And,
HIS
children
are
in
need
of
correction.
There
is
no
new
thing
under
the
sun....
As
we
continue,
please
do
not
jump
the
gun,
so
to
speak,
for
these
verses
in
chapter
38
speak
of
a
very
short
war
that
precedes
the
arrival
of
Satan's
fallen
angels
(disguised,
who
will
set
up
the
spurious
image).
It
is
then
most
definitely
in
advance
of
the
time
of
Hammongog
and
Armageddon.
"Be
thou
prepared,
and
prepare
for
thyself,
thou,
and
all
thy
company
that
are
assembled
unto
thee,
and
be
thou
a
guard
unto
them.
After
many
days
thou
shalt
be
visited:
in
the
latter
years
thou
shalt
come
into
the
land
that
is
brought
back
from
the
sword,
and
is
gathered
out
of
many
people,
against
the
mountains
of
Israel,
which
have
been
always
waste:
but
it
is
brought
forth
out
of
the
nations,
and
they
shall
dwell
safely
all
of
them."
This
"against"
in
"against
the
mountains
of
Israel"
is
not
to
say
that
"the
land
that
is
brought
back
from
the
sword"
is
in
opposition
'against',
but
rather
'among'
or
'next
to'
in
their
governmental
standings
with
Israel.
They
are
more
or
less
aligned
with
each
other.
Who
then
does
this
speak?
Ezek
38:
9
Thou
shalt
ascend
and
come
like
a
storm,
thou
shalt
be
like
a
cloud
to
cover
the
land,
thou,
and
all
thy
bands,
and
many
people
with
thee.
10
Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
It
shall
also
come
to
pass,
that
at
the
same
time
shall
things
come
into
thy
mind,
and
thou
shalt
think
an
evil
thought:
11
And
thou
shalt
say,
I
will
go
up
to
the
land
of
unwalled
villages;
I
will
go
to
them
that
are
at
rest,
that
dwell
safely,
all
of
them
dwelling
without
walls,
and
having
neither
bars
nor
gates,
12
To
take
a
spoil,
and
to
take
a
prey;
to
turn
thine
hand
upon
the
desolate
places
that
are
now
inhabited,
and
upon
the
people
that
are
gathered
out
of
the
nations,
which
have
gotten
cattle
and
goods,
that
dwell
in
the
midst
of
the
land.
"And
thou
shalt
say,
I
will
go
up
to
the
land
of
unwalled
villages;
I
will
go
to
them
that
are
at
rest,
that
dwell
safely,
all
of
them
dwelling
without
walls,
and
having
neither
bars
nor
gates,
To
take
a
spoil,
and
to
take
a
prey;
to
turn
thine
hand
upon
the
desolate
places
that
are
now
inhabited,
and
upon
the
people
that
are
gathered
out
of
the
nations,
which
have
gotten
cattle
and
goods,
that
dwell
in
the
midst
of
the
land."
This,
of
course
speaks
of
"them
that
are
at
rest,
that
dwell
safely,
all
of
them
dwelling
without
walls,
and
having
neither
bars
nor
gates"...."the
land
of
unwalled
villages"...the
United
States.
The
"mountains
of
Israel"
is
to
say,
the
countries
which
have
come
out
of
the
tribes
of
Israel,
specifically
the
10
tribes.
(Judah
and
Benjamin
are
usually
referred
to
as
'Judah'.)
[Note
that
the
'two
sticks'
are
still
not
yet
joined
back
together.]
What
are
these
"the
desolate
places
that
are
now
inhabited"?
These
refer
to
'spiritually
desolate
places'
although
a
great
many
people
live
there.
This
refers
to
large
cities,
where
peoples
of
all
nations
and
cultures
have
gathered.
What
does
it
mean
"To
take
a
spoil,
and
to
take
a
prey;
to
turn
thine
hand
upon
the
desolate
places
that
are
now
inhabited,
and
upon
the
people
that
are
gathered
out
of
the
nations,
which
have
gotten
cattle
and
goods,
that
dwell
in
the
midst
of
the
land"?
The
word
"spoil"
refers
to
'gain'
in
any
form.
The
word
"prey"
refers
to
'plunder'
and/or
'spoil'.
"to
turn
thine
hand
upon
the
desolate
places
that
are
now
inhabited,
and
upon
the
people"
This
"thine
hand"
speaks
of
their
combined
'power'.
And,
this
'power'
shall
be
brought
violently
upon
these
large
cities
and
the
people
living
in
these
cities.
Ezek
38:
13
Sheba,
and
Dedan,
and
the
merchants
of
Tarshish,
with
all
the
young
lions
thereof,
shall
say
unto
thee,
Art
thou
come
to
take
a
spoil?
hast
thou
gathered
thy
company
to
take
a
prey?
to
carry
away
silver
and
gold,
to
take
away
cattle
and
goods,
to
take
a
great
spoil?
These
speak
of
other
'rich'
nations,
who
are
protected.
And,
they
are
stunned,
therefore,
they
ask
these
questions.
Ezek
38:
14
Therefore,
son
of
man,
prophesy
and
say
unto
Gog,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
GOD;
In
that
day
when
my
people
of
Israel
dwelleth
safely,
shalt
thou
not
know
it?
Yes,
"Gog"
shall
know
when
we,
in
the
United
States,
are
feeling
secure.
We
have
become
peoples
of
complacency,
no
longer
paying
much
attention
to
the
alert
system
which
was
established
after
9-11-01.
A
nation
so
liberal
that
even
the
most
hideous
of
things
have
become
commonplace,
ordinary.
No
new
thing
under
the
sun....same
thing,
different
day.
Ezek
38:
15
And
thou
shalt
come
from
thy
place
out
of
the
north
parts,
thou,
and
many
people
with
thee,
all
of
them
riding
upon
horses,
a
great
company,
and
a
mighty
army:
16
And
thou
shalt
come
up
against
my
people
of
Israel,
as
a
cloud
to
cover
the
land;
it
shall
be
in
the
latter
days,
and
I
will
bring
thee
against
my
land,
that
the
heathen
may
know
me,
when
I
shall
be
sanctified
in
thee,
O
Gog,
before
their
eyes.
With
all
the
advanced
technology
of
today,
these
enemies
do
not
even
have
to
be
present
in
the
United
States
to
bring
about
a
war.
This
"riding
upon
horses"
can
speak
of
any
form
by
which
they
deliver
their
heavy
fisted
blow.
This
"as
a
cloud
to
cover
the
land"
speaks
of
'in
the
manner
of
a
great,
violent
storm,
causing
darkness
(evilness)
to
come
over
the
land.
Why
shall
YHVH
cause
these
things
to
come
about
in
HIS
land
("my
land")?
"that
the
heathen
may
know
me,
when
I

sanctified
in
thee,

my
servants

of

prophesied

a
very
short

"that

What
is
YHVH'S
"fury"?
This
speaks
of
HIS
great
"wrath",
and
the
instrument
HE
shall
then
bring
upon
the

What
is
this
'instrument'?
It

'rod

sun
became
black
as
sackcloth
of
hair,
and
the
moon
became
as
blood;
13
And
the
stars
of
heaven
fell
unto
the
earth,
even
as
a
fig
tree
casteth
her
untimely
figs,
when
she
is
shaken
of
a
mighty
wind.
14
And
the
heaven
departed
as
a
scroll
when
it
is
rolled
together;
and
every
mountain
and
island
were
moved
out
of
their
places.
15
And
the
kings
of
the
earth,
and
the
great
men,
and
the
rich
men,
and
the
chief
captains,
and
the
mighty
men,
and
every
bondman,
and
every
free
man,
hid
themselves
in
the
dens
and
in
the
rocks
of
the
mountains;
16
And
said
to
the
mountains
and
rocks,
Fall
on
us,
and
hide
us
from
the
face
of
him
that
sitteth
on
the
throne,
and
from
the
wrath
of
the
Lamb:
17
For
the
great
day
of
his
wrath
is
come;
and
who
shall
be
able
to
stand?
(KJV)
Who
shall
be
able
to
stand?
YHVH'S
servants
shall
stand.
Ezek
38:
20
So
that
the
fishes
of
the
sea,
and
the
fowls
of
the
heaven,
and
the
beasts
of
the
field,
and
all
creeping
things
that
creep
upon
the
earth,
and
all
the
men
that
are
upon
the
face
of
the
earth,
shall
shake
at
my
presence,
and
the
mountains
shall
be
thrown
down,
and
the
steep
places
shall
fall,
and
every
wall
shall
fall
to
the
ground.
What
are
"the
fishes
of
the
sea"?
This
speaks
of
Christians...153
kinds.
John
21:11
11
Simon
Peter
went
up,
and
drew
the
net
to
land
full
of
great
fishes,
an
hundred
and
fifty
and
three:
and
for
all
there
were
so
many,
yet
was
not
the
net
broken.
(KJV)
What
are
"and
the
fowls
of
the
heaven"?
This
speaks
of
'spirits'.
What
are
"the
beasts
of
the
field"?
These
are
earthly
governments.
What
are
"all
creeping
things
that
creep
upon
the
earth"?
Speaks
of
any
living
creature.
Who
are
"all
the
men
that
are
upon
the
face
of
the
earth"?
This
speaks
of
all
mankind.
"shall
shake
at
my
presence"
YHVH'S
HOLY
SPIRIT
is
that
which
shall
be
felt
by
all
things
and
everyone.
"and
the
mountains
shall
be
thrown
down,
and
the
steep
places
shall
fall,
and
every
wall
shall
fall
to
the
ground."
Remember,
this
is
still
a
part
of
YHVH'S
Wrath.
Let
go
back
to
Revelations.
Rev
6:12-17
12
And
I
beheld
when
he
had
opened
the
sixth
seal,
and,
lo,
there
was
a
great
earthquake;
and
the
sun
became
black
as
sackcloth
of
hair,
and
the
moon
became
as
blood;
13
And
the
stars
of
heaven
fell
unto
the
earth,
even
as
a
fig
tree
casteth
her
untimely
figs,
when
she
is
shaken
of
a
mighty
wind.
14
And
the
heaven
departed
as
a
scroll
when
it
is
rolled
together;
and
every
mountain
and
island
were
moved
out
of
their
places.
"And
the
heaven
departed
as
a
scroll
when
it
is
rolled
together"
We
can
see
this
in
the
following:
Rev
11:3-6
3
And
I
will
give
power
unto
my
two
witnesses,
and
they
shall
prophesy
a
thousand
two
hundred
and
threescore
days,
clothed
in
sackcloth.
4
These
are
the
two
olive
trees,
and
the
two
candlesticks
standing
before
the
God
of
the
earth.
5
And
if
any
man
will
hurt
them,
fire
proceedeth
out
of
their
mouth,
and
devoureth
their
enemies:
and
if
any
man
will
hurt
them,
he
must
in
this
manner
be
killed.
6
These
have
power
to
shut
heaven,
that
it
rain
not
in
the
days
of
their
prophecy:
and
have
power
over
waters
to
turn
them
to
blood,
and
to
smite
the
earth
with
all
plagues,
as
often
as
they
will.
(KJV)
Rev
6:
15
And
the
kings
of
the
earth,
and
the
great
men,
and
the
rich
men,
and
the
chief
captains,
and
the
mighty
men,
and
every
bondman,
and
every
free
man,
hid
themselves
in
the
dens
and
in
the
rocks
of
the
mountains;
16
And
said
to
the
mountains
and
rocks,
Fall
on
us,
and
hide
us
from
the
face
of
him
that
sitteth
on
the
throne,
and
from
the
wrath
of
the
Lamb:
17
For
the
great
day
of
his
wrath
is
come;
and
who
shall
be
able
to
stand?
(KJV)
Whose
"mountain"
(government)
will
they
cry
out
to
protect
them?
Which
"Rock/rock"
will
they
want
to
cover
them?
Deut
32:31
31
For
their
rock
is
not
as
our
Rock,
even
our
enemies
themselves
being
judges.
(KJV)
Satan's
government
and
then
Satan,
himself,
are
the
instruments
whom
YHVH
shall
use
to
correct
HIS
children.
"him
that
sitteth
on
the
throne"
shall
be
Satan's
government
and
image,
and
then
later
Satan,
himself,
disguised
as
'Jesus'.
And,
these
are
"the
wrath"
which
YHVH
has
pronounced
for
THE
LAMB'S
sake.
As
Satan's
government
arrives
in
the
sight
of
man,
and
sets
up
Satan's
image,
man's
"mountains"
(governments)
shall
be
moved
out
of
their
places.
And,
these
"mountains"
shall
be
moved
into
Satan's
spurious
'one
world
theocracy'.
Ezek
38:
21
And
I
will
call
for
a
sword
against
him
throughout
all
my
mountains,
saith
the
Lord
GOD:
every
man's
sword
shall
be
against
his
brother.
During
this
very
short
war,
which
precedes
the
arrival
of
Satan's
government,
"every
man's
sword
shall
be
against
his
brother".
FATHER
shall
call
for
HIS
"mountains"
(Christian
governments/nations)
to
fight
against
Gog
and
all
who
have
aligned
themselves
with
him.
Ezek
38:
22
And
I
will
plead
against
him
with
pestilence
and
with
blood;
and
I
will
rain
upon
him,
and
upon
his
bands,
and
upon
the
many
people
that
are
with
him,
an
overflowing
rain,
and
great
hailstones,
fire,
and
brimstone.
What
are
these
things?
Let
us
look
to
the
10
plagues
of
Egypt
(bondage).
1.
The
Water
of
the
Nile
Turned
into
Blood
<Ex.
7:14-25>.
2.
Frogs
Cover
the
Land
<Ex.
8:1-15>.
3.
Lice
Throughout
the
Land
<Ex.
8:16-19>.
4.
Swarms
of
Flies
<Ex.
8:20-32>.
5.
Pestilence
of
Livestock
<Ex.
9:1-7>.
6.
Boils
on
Man
and
Beast
<Ex.
9:8-12>.
7.
Heavy
Hail,
with
Thunder
and
Lightning
<Ex.
9:13-35>.
8.
Swarm
of
Locusts
<Ex.
10:1-20>.
9.
Three
Days
of
Darkness
<Ex.
10:21-29>.
10.
Death
of
Egyptian
Firstborn
<Ex.
11:1--12:30>.
Do
you
see
these
first
8
plagues
in
"And
I
will
plead
against
him
with
pestilence
and
with
blood;
and
I
will
rain
upon
him,
and
upon
his
bands,
and
upon
the
many
people
that
are
with
him,
an
overflowing
rain,
and
great
hailstones,
fire,
and
brimstone."?
What
follows
these
first
8
plagues?
"three
days"
of
darkness
How
long
do
you
think
this
war
will
last?
Could
it
be
"three
days"
before
Satan's
government
(Death)
arrives?
Ezek
38:
23
Thus
will
I
magnify
myself,
and
sanctify
myself;
and
I
will
be
known
in
the
eyes
of
many
nations,
and
they
shall
know
that
I
am
the
LORD.
(KJV)
Now,
let
us
think
about
this
a
bit
more.
A
world
war
would
cause
all
in
the
world
to
begin
looking
to
their
GOD,
gods,
or
governments.
Much
of
the
world
would
be
praying
or
pleading
for
intervention....and
YHVH
shall
provide
the
intervention,
but
it
shall
be
more
of
HIS
Wrath.
YHVH
shall
make
use
of
that
rod
of
iron.
How
many
will
accept
the
first
supernatural
entities
who
arrive
as
being
from
their
God?
How
many
in
the
world
know
and
love
YHVH,
Our
FATHER,
enough
to
have
worked
to
prepare
themselves
for
this
time?
Yet,
YHVH
has
been
gathering
and
preparing
those
who
shall
bring
forth
HIS
HOLY
SPIRIT.
And,
YHVH
shall
use
these
goodly
servants
as
vessels
to
bring
forth
HIS
Truth
by
way
of
HIS
HOLY
SPIRIT
according
to
HIS
timing
during
the
great
apostasy.
May
FATHER
bless
all
who
love
HIM
and
do
HIS
Will.
