Anyone with just a little common sense can understand that the alignment of nations given in that Ezekiel 38 chapter is happening TODAY, and not back in history.
And because the false plants come here to try and disguise themselves and push such idiotic opinions against Bible Scripture, ought to be waking up a lot of my Christian brethren of what's going on here on this forum.
As usual, a LINE UPON LINE Bible study method reveals those who come here to intentially push propaganda and lies against God's Word...
Ezek 38:1-9
38 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
The manuscript word for "chief" above is ro'sh (OT:7218) and is a derivative of the old name for Rus, which is where the name Russia came from.
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
That Meshech and Tubal, that represented generations of the sons of Noah, is pointing to areas around the Caucasus near Russia like the Moschi and Tibareni.
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 them handling swords:
5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
Persia today is represented by the nations of Iran and Iraq. Communist Russia and Red China today are behind building Iran's nuclear weapons program. They also supply Iran with weapons and training. Likewise Sadam Husein's army was receiving Russian military aid and training when he invaded Kuwait.
Syria can be included in this group, because for a long time Syria has had military support, even a Russian naval base, and Russian advisors established in Syria. Years ago, when Russia was helping Syria to build a nuclear facility, the Israeli Air Force destroyed the facility, which Russia then issued a warning to Israel that the Russians had military advisors there in Syria.
Libya, one should be easily familiar with today, since President Reagan in the '80s sent U.S. bombers to bomb Islamic terrorist camps in Libya where Russian advisors were training Islamic terrorists that were behind the bombing of American soldiers in Germany.
Ethiopia in Ezekiel's day covered all the lands below Egypt. Later Ethiopia was divided up, and today the nation of Sudan makes up most of the old territory just below Egypt, and guess who Sudan today is allied with? Yep! you got it, with Communist Russia.
6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
Gomer represents old Communist satellite nations like Georgia just below Russia. One should have easily see how Communist Russia today is still controlling states like Georgia and Ukraine by their invasions when those old satellites attempt to join NATO.
Togarmah was the old region of Cappodacia, what is today the nation of Turkey, a NATO ally.
Except for Libya and Ethiopia, all these other nations allied with Rus are in the northern quarters above Israel.
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the 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 people with thee.
KJV
That "in the latter years" means in the LAST DAYS, near the END of this present world. So anyone... trying to pass this event off as a past history, you should know something is wrong with that person, and that they are pushing Satan's propaganda, either knowingly or unknowingly.
It is not difficult at all to see that Communist Russia is supporting the military and terrorist organizations of these named nations banded together in alliance, except... the nation of Turkey:
Persia = Iran, Iraq, Syria
Libya = today's nation of Libya
Ethiopia = Sudan
Gomer = old Soviet satellites below Russia, like Georgia
Togarmah = Turkey
The nation of Turkey today is a member of NATO. Yet it is an Islamic country, the majority there are Muslims. Russia has been busy trying to insert a radical Islamic government in Turkey to end NATO relations there, and align instead with Communist Russia and the other radical Islamic nations. So Turkey is a place to be watching today, as it will complete... this Ezekiel 38 alignment of nations that will form this great army that will come upon the nation of Israel in the last days.
