Ezekiel 38 was written about 580 bce. The Kingdom of Judah had already died along with the royal line of David from father to son.. However Yahuah's promise of always having a King was still true through King Zedekiah's daughter becoming High Queen over the Lost tribes of Israel in Ireland. She married into another royal line of David. Therefore Ezekiel 38 is not prophecy for Judah before the current era, it's still prophecy today. Gog of the land of Magog is Turkey today because it said land of Magog. Russian territory is not the land of Magog. Gog was a descendant of Reuben of the tribes of Israel. Chief prince is to say, head of state or President. This would be the head of state over Meshech and Tubal. The question is, where are these locations on a map? Both these locations are in Turkey today.
‘Thus says Lord Yahuah, “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, and all your military force, horses and horsemen, all of them magnificently dressed, a great assembly with large shield and shield, all of them wielding swords;
This only focuses on Turkey. To turn about is for Turkey to pull back or pushed back. But then to have been hooked into sending out their military is seen as something they have no choice in the matter of a future war. Having translated original language online, it will be both a defensive and offensive war, probably in winter.
Persia, Ethiopia, and Phut with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
Persia is Iran, Ethiopia and Phut are Muslim countries in Northeast Africa. Phut is Libya. What is interesting is that Lib in Hebrew is heart. Yahusha is the name of God. Libya could be seen as the heart of God. In other words, Libya and Ethiopia have Israelite ancestry.
Gomer with all its troops; Beth-togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops—many peoples with you.
Gomer is the name of Noah's grandson, a son of Japheth, and father of Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. By saying Beth-Togarmar is to say daughter of Togarmar. It seemingly pulls in Eastern Europe and it's Jewish influence.
“Be prepared, and prepare yourself, you and all your assembly that are assembled about you, and be a guard for them. After many days you will be mustered; in the last years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been gathered from many peoples to the mountains of Israel which had been a continual waste;
Turkey will lead an assembly of nations into Israel. There will be a war and then restoration before the invasion. The people of Israel will have come from many nations living in an area that vhad been wasteland.
but its people were brought out from the peoples, and they are living securely, all of them. And you will go up; you will come like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
It's interesting how this event is described as a cloud. Fighter jets, helicopters and drones would appear like a cloud. Then come the troops from a coalition of nations.
‘Thus says Lord Yahuah, “It will be in that day, that thoughts will come into your heart, and you will devise an evil plan, and you will say, ‘I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will go against those who dwell quietly, that live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates, to capture spoil and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places, which are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired cattle and property, who live at the center of the world.’
The center of the world is Jerusalem. Israel is where Africa, Asia and Europe all come together. It's geographical location would be the prime location to control and tax world trade.
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its young lions will say to you,
Sheba and Dedan is Saudi Arabia. Tarshish is considered to be the western Mediterranean area. By saying with all the young Lions, it would make Tarshish the United Kingdom including the USA with it's coalition. Saudi Arabia has the city of Neom in the southwest part of its territory, any threat to that and Israel would be world war.
‘Have you come to capture spoil? Have you assembled your assembly to seize plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to capture great spoil?
It's as if the eastern Roman empire is at war with the western Roman empire with the exception of Saudi Arabia and Israel. However Israel will have a false Messiah, an Assyrian Antichrist over them
“Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, ‘Thus says Lord Yahuah, “On that day when My people Israel are living securely, will you not know it? You will come from your place out of the remote parts of the north, you and numerous peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and a numerous military force; and you will come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land.
North of Israel are the Black Sea Nations. We must wait until what happens between Russia and the Ukraine war. What if a East European Union was formed? The EU today would be downsized into a West European Union. The Eastern Union might hold part of Russia, we don't know. What we do know Moscow is not directly North of Jerusalem. Kiev Ukraine is. Poland and the Ukraine are the same ethnic group.
It will be in the last days that I will bring you against My land so that the nations may know Me when I prove Myself holy through you before their eyes, O Gog.” ‘Thus says Lord Yahuah, “Are you the one of whom I spoke in former days by the hand of My slaves the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days for many years that I would bring you against them? And it will be in that day, when Gog comes against the land of Israel,” declares Lord Yahuah, “that My wrath will mount up in My anger. In My zeal and in My blazing fury I have spoken that on that day there will surely be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.
The question is, what is the relationship between Turkey and Israel today? Traditionally relationship between them has been complicated. Currently it has been bad because of the Gaza Strip. All it would take is a few words to cause a war and fulfill prophecy. Bergama, Turkey is the seat of Satan mentioned in Revelation 2:13 by the name of Pergamon. The leader of Turkey when this happens will probably be possessed by Satan.
And the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the beasts of the field, all the creeping things that creep on the ground, and all the men who are on the face of the earth will quake at My presence; the mountains also will be pulled down, the steep pathways will fall, and every wall will fall to the earth. And I will call for a sword against him on all My mountains,” declares Lord Yahuah. “Every man’s sword will be against his brother. With pestilence and with blood I will enter into judgment with him; and I will rain on him and on his troops, and on the numerous peoples who are with him, a torrential rain, with hailstones, fire, and brimstone. And I will magnify Myself, I will manifest Myself as holy, and I will make Myself known in the sight of many nations; and they will know that I am Yahuah.”
There is nothing to be said to explain these verses any better.
