Best Answer

Gog and Magog are mentioned again in Revelation is found in 20:7-8. The duplicated use of the names Gog and Magog in Revelation 20:8-9 is to show that these people demonstrate the same rebellion against God and antagonism toward God as those in Ezekiel 38-39.

People who was put behind a enormous fence by a man who was having a crown with 2horns who started the war and eventually he won this war.

Answer:Magog was a grandson of Noah; the second son of Japheth (Genesis 10:2; 1 Chronicles 1:5). He was the progenitor of several tribes who settled in a mountainous region north of Israel between Cappadocia and Media, and their land also came to bear the name Magog (Ezekiel 38:2; 39:6).

In Revelation 20:8, the name is used to symbolize those deceived by Satan into the service of evil.

Additional Answer:

The people who known as Magog continued to migrate and eventually settled in what is now modern Russia and areas near in the East.

Ezekiel 38:2-3New International Version (NIV)

2 "Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of[a] Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him 3 and say: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of[b] Meshek and Tubal.

Meshek is the ancient name that became Moscow today along with Rosh (Russia) and Tubal (T'blisk) in Northern Russia.

Their leader in the end-times, Gog will join forces with the descendants of Gomer (China and smaller SE Asian, Indo-China countries) who will become the King of the South that will march against the King of the North in Israel. They will join forces when Jesus' 2nd Coming occurs and will come down to Jerusalem to battle the King of Kings and Lord of Lords - only to fully perish.

What is Magog?

Magog is the name of the second son of Japheth, who was one of the three sons of Noah in the Bible (Genesis 10:1-2; I Chronicles 1:4-5). The term "Magog" is also used to refer to the nation that descended from Magog. Ezekiel 38 makes mention of the "land of Magog," which presumably refers to the land where the descendants of Magog settled after the nations dispersed from the Tower of Babel (Genesis 10).According to Josephus, a well-known Jewish historian of the first century, the descendants of Magog were the Scythians (Antiquities of the Jews I, VI, 1). The Scythians were an ancient tribe that inhabited the region north of the Black Sea and north and east of the Caspian Sea.Ezekiel 38-39 speaks of an individual called "Gog" that leads an invasion of Israel from the north. Gog is said to originate from "the land of Magog" (Ezekiel 38:2). This invasion is known to Biblical scholars as the Magog Invasion or the War of Gog and Magog.Magog is mentioned along with Gog in Revelation 20:8 as a nation that comes against the "camp of the saints" and the "beloved city" at the end of a period of time known as the Millenium in Christian Eschatology. Gog and Magog are then destroyed by God with fire from heaven (Revelation 20:7-10).The phrase "Gog and Magog" is also found in the Qur'an in sura Al-Kahf (The Cave chapter), 18:83-98, as "Yajuj and Majuj," and in 21:96-97.

Who is 'Gog' in The Bible?

God sends a message to Gog of the land of Magog in Ezekiel 38 & 39. So who then is Gog? In Ezekiel 2-3 and again in 39:1, "Gog, of the land of Magog," is called the "prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal." In Ezekiel 38:5, he is allied with "Persia, Ethiopia(Cush in Hebrew), and Libya(Put in Hebrew)" as the New King James translates this verse - as well as "Gomer and...the house of Togarmah" (see verse 6). Nearly all of these names can be found in the Table of Nations of Genesis 10:1-6, which lists the families of humanity descended from Noah "Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood. The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.... The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.... The reader will note that Gog is not mentioned here. Some biblical scholars believe this may be because the name Magog actually means "land of Gog"-so that perhaps the actual son of Japheth was named Gog and the nation he founded became known as Magog. The name Gog then when seen in a later or future context would designate anyone who was from the land of Gog (i.e., from Magog). Lastly, Ezekiel mentions this confederacy of peoples which some scholars - both biblical and secular have come to believe these peoples to be the modern nation states of Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Russia, China, Japan and other Indonesian descendants of Magog. These are the nations fielding the 200 million man army that will come across land to attempt to destroy Israel. The Book of Revelation tells of the outcome of this 'final' battle.
