Who is Gog?: The Ezekiel series, part 71 (38:1-4)

We’re finally starting it, the most famous section of Ezekiel: chapters 38 and 39. The battle of Gog and Magog.
This chapter is about an alliance of nations that band together to attack Israel in the end times. The list of nations includes names like Cush, Put, Togarmah and more, and they’re led by a figure named Gog.
I don’t know about you, but these sound like someone in Scrabble trying to make up words with whatever tiles they have left. In fact, it’s hard to know who all it’s talking about unless we do some historical research to find out what these words meant to Ezekiel’s original audience.
And that’s not difficult to do, except when it comes to the identity of the leader of this alliance: Gog.
Who is Gog? That’s the question we’re going to start this multi week study with, and it all begins today on the Cross References podcast.
