Ezekiel 38:1-3

Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 2 "Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, *the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, 3 and say, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. 5 Persia (Iran), *Ethiopia, and *Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; 6 Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops--many people are with you.

Ezekiel 38:14

"Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog,

'Thus says the Lord God:

"On that day when My people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it? 15 Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army. 16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me…

Ezekiel 38:18

"And it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel," says the Lord God, "that My fury will show in My face. 19 For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: 'Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel…

Ezekiel 38:12

And I will bring him to judgment with pestilence and bloodshed; I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. 23 Thus I will magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord."'

Gog and Non-Arab Allies Attack Israel

•There are no pre-conditions to this event•This attack could happen at any moment•The Alliance of Russia and the Non-Arab Muslim States

will come from the north to attack Israel•Israel’s Arab neighbors refrain from this battle possibly

because they have a peace treaty with Israel•The Alliance is liquidated just before they step across the border of Israel•Israel seeks sends out a recovery team for 7 months and it takes 7 months to burry the dead•Israel burns the weapons (conventional, and possibly nuclear?) for seven years.•No weapon that is formed against Israel will prosper.

The Future of the Arab States in Prophecy

Page 10: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1
Page 11: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

THE FUTURE OF THE CONFLICT

Ultimately, there will be peace between Israel and the Arab states, but it will take one of three forms:

(1) by means of occupation; (2) by means of destruction; or (3) by means of conversion.

It is necessary to deal with the various Arab states individually to get a clearer picture.

Page 12: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

THE FUTURE OF THE CONFLICT

Psalm 83:2-5

"For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: ….

They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee..."

A. Lebanon

Peace between Israel and Lebanon will come by means of occupation. In Ezekiel 47:13 - 48:29 we are given the boundaries of the nation of Israel in the Messianic Kingdom.

The tracing of the northern boundary shows that Israel will encompass all of modern-day Lebanon.

B. Jordan (Edom, Moab, and Ammon)

It is Edom (southern Jordan) in particular that the prophets were concerned about. Several passages reveal that peace will come between Israel and southern Jordan by means of total destruction.

Some of those passages are Ezekiel 35:6-9, Jeremiah 49:7-13 and 19-20, and Obadiah 5-9 and 17-21. The fact that Israel will help bring about the final destruction of Edom (and, thus, the total annihilation of all descendants of Esau) is portrayed in Ezekiel 25:12-14.

Page 16: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

Moab (modern central Jordan)

Moab will also suffer destruction, but it will not be total. A remnant of Moab will return according to Jeremiah 48:47.

Page 17: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

Ammon (present-day northern Jordan),

Ammon it will become a possession of Israel but its destruction will not be total. That is depicted in Jeremiah 49:1-6.

C. Egypt

Peace will come between Israel and Egypt initially by means of destruction and later by means of conversion, as comprehensively covered in Isaiah 19:1-22. Verses 1-10 reveal that because of her sins, Egypt will be characterized by civil war, desolation, and famine.

The prophet states in verses 11-15 that Egypt will suffer because she has been led astray by her leaders. Under the dictatorship of Farouk, Nassar, and Sadat the nation went to war against Israel four times, resulting in heavy human and economic losses.

Page 20: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

C. Egypt

Understandably, Egypt has developed a fear of Israel as prophesied in verses 16-17. This has come to pass only since 1948 and especially since the Six Day War .

Prophetically, today is still the period described in Isaiah 19:16-17. Eventually, there will be total and lasting peace between Israel and Egypt, which in turn will give way to Egypt’s conversion in Isaiah 19:18-22.

D. Northern Iraq and Eastern Syria (Assyria)

Iraq and portions of modern Syria are two other implacable Arab enemies of modern Israel. However, peace will come between Israel and these two Arab countries by means of conversion according to Isaiah 19:23-25. Verse 23 describes an economic unit that will encompass Egypt, Israel and Assyria. Assyria will become a blessing in the earth and will receive a blessing from God. The three former enemies will now have a spiritual unity as well as an economic and political one. God declares: Egypt [will be] my people, ... Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.

E. Saudi Arabia (Keder and Hazor)

Peace will come between Israel and Saudi Arabia by means of destruction according to Jeremiah 49:28-33.

The passage describes the total devastation of Saudi Arabia by war until the inhabitants are scattered and dispersed all over the world.

As for the land itself, Jeremiah 49:33 states:And Hazor shall be a dwelling-place of jackals, a desolation for ever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man sojourn therein. Saudi Arabia’s desolation will last for all of the one thousand years of the Messianic Kingdom.

F. Persia or Iran (Elam)

Iran is a Persian state rather than Arab, but it shares the same religion with the Moslem Arabs, Islam. Peace will come between Israel and Iran by means of destruction according to Jeremiah 49:34-39.

However, the destruction of Iran will be partial, and the dispersion will be temporary. Eventually the inhabitants will return and resettle Iran. The future of Iran is similar to that of Egypt, but the length of time they will be in dispersion is not revealed.

There will be a Nation of Elam---Persia or Iran, in the Kingdom.

G. Syria

4 Strikes - Then You're Out?

Amos 1:3 "...For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof..."

•Strike 1 - The War of Independence •Strike 2 - The 6 Day War •Strike 3 - The Yom Kippur War •Strike 4 - YOU’RE OUT

Page 27: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

G. Syria

Isaiah 17:1 The burden against Damascus.“Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city,And it will be a ruinous heap.”

Jeremiah 49:24-25 "Damascus is waxed feeble, and turneth herself to flee, and fear hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail. How is the city of praise not left, the city of my joy!"

H. Southern Iraq (Babylon)

Southern Iraq is destined to be a desolate spot throughout the Messianic Kingdom (Isaiah 13:20-22; Jeremiah 50:39-40).

Not only is this area to be a desolate waste throughout the Kingdom, Revelation 19:3 says that it will also be a place of continual burning and smoke through the Millennium.

The animal inhabitants mentioned in Isaiah 13:20-22 and Jeremiah 51:39-40 cannot live in a place of continual burning.

Therefore, they cannot be literal animals as we know them.

Page 30: GOG AND MAGOG & the Non-Arab Invasion of Israel Part 1

H. Southern Iraq (Babylon)

What they actually are is explained by Revelation 18:1-2: After these things I saw another angel coming down out of heaven, having great authority; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried with a mighty voice, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and is become a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hateful bird.

This picture of continual burning and smoke will be a place of confinement for many demons during the Kingdom Period. It is clear from Revelation 9 and other passages that demons have animal-like features, and this is what the animals of the Isaiah and Jeremiah passages actually represent.
