Ezekiel 38
Book of Ezekiel
Malachi 1:4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build
the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but
I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness,
and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.
-
Edom's = the nation Russia = Russia's symbol
= the bear = Russia's flag = red
-
Edom = OT:123 Hebrew word 'Edom from OT:122;
red, Edom, the elder twin-brother of Jacob;
hence the region (Idumaea) occupied by him. Edomites, Idumea.
-
Genesis 25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an
hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
-
Russia saith, we are Impoverished or beaten
down, but we will return and build the desolate
places
-
It you are a watchmen, you see this is
happening, you are reading tomorrow newspaper.
-
The word of God to Israel, of His Love to you
-
God said, they shall build, but I will throw
down; and they shall call them, The territory of
lawlessness.
Ezekiel 38:1 And the word of the LORD came
unto me, saying,
-
The Lord is talking, not man
-
This chapter refers to judgments on the enemies
(Gog)
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,
the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and
prophesy against him,
-
That the prophecies of Ezekiel 38 and Ezekiel 39 are still future is
clear from Ezekiel 38:8,14,16; 39:9,25,26; as Israel will have then
already been "gathered", and complete restoration enjoyed
immediately following the destruction of Gog, which is Russia.
-
"Now will I bring again
the captivity of Israel".
-
It marks the climax of Satan's effort to destroy Israel from being a
People, and clearly belongs to the close of a yet future kingdom
age.
-
The historical interpretation of this prophecy is confessedly
impossible.
-
If "Gog" denotes and symbolizes all that is powerful, gigantic, and
proud, then "Magog" is symbolical of the same lands and peoples.
-
The chief prince = the head, or leader of Rosh.
-
In Hebrew
Rosh, which point to Russia.
-
Meshech and Tubal = The renders these Mesoch and Thobel
-
The Moschi and Tibareni, occupying regions about the
Caucasus.
-
Meshech = Russia
-
The prophecies of Ezekiel 38 and Ezekiel 39 are still future, this
is clear from Ezekiel 38:8-16 and Ezekiel 39:9-26.
-
It must therefore precede the Millennium: and on that account must
be distinguished from Revelation 20:8-10, and may therefore perhaps
be identified with Revelation 16:14, Revelation 17:14, Revelation
19:17-21, Matthew 24:14-30 and Zech 12:1-4.
-
Numbers 24:7 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his
seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag,
and his kingdom shall be exalted.
-
Russia,
they
will come against us in the end times.
-
USA
purchase parts of Alaska for seven million dollars,
could
this be where God will destroy them?
-
This has
nothing to do with Christian people of Russia
-
Locusts
do not come from the North, The
armies of Revelation 9 and Daniel 11 come from the North. Satan's
army the Kenites.
- Ezekiel
39:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto
Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers
on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the
passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and
they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.
- Tubal = OT:8423 offspring of Cain; Tubal-Kajin, an antidiluvian

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.
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

saith the Lord God; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth
safely, shalt thou not know it?
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:
6 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.
- Ezekiel 39:9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go
forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and
the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the hand staves, and the
spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:
- Ezekiel 39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Now will I bring
again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of
Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses
whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their
land, and none made them afraid.
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
Behold I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and
Tubal:
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

Phut were in thine army, thy men of war: they
hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set
forth thy comeliness.
-
Ezekiel 30:5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and
all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of
the land that is in league, shall fall with them
by the sword.
6 Thus saith the Lord; They also that uphold
Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power
shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall
they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord
God.
-
These were descended from Ham
-
Genesis 10:6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and
Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and

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

-
This happen after Satan kills the two witnesses
(Revelation 11)
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:
-
Things = words, or matters
-
Think and evil thought = devise a mischievous
device.
-
Daniel 11:44 But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him:
therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to
