How do people come to the conclusion that Magog is in Russia? What are the benefits of using the Historical-Grammatical Method to interpret prophecy rather than a bloodline-lineage or Ancestral-Migration Method? Joel Richardson explains.

6 responses to “Gog of Magog Part 2: Russia or Turkey? [Ezekiel 38 & 39]”
“Keep your eye on Turkey.” A memorable line from one of your articles, Jon. Well, I’m a-watchin’ — and here’s a sit-up-and-take-notice article: “Is Turkey Leaving the West?” by Daniel Pipes, in the 2/7/2013 edition of Townhall.com.
Pipes writes: “Recent steps taken by the Government of Turkey suggest it may be ready to ditch the NATO club of democracies for a Russian and Chinese gang of authoritarian states.”
The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), PIpes explains, was founded in 1996 by Russia and China, along with 3 former Soviet Central Asian states (and a 4th in 2001).
According to Pipes’ report, Turkish PM Erdogan has said “the SCO ‘is much better, it is much more powerful /than the EU/, and we share values with its members.’”
yeah. many are looking to Turkey to lead the coming Islamic Caliphate, but some are also looking to Egypt, hence the king of the north (Turkey) and the king of the south (Egypt) will again be at war with one another per Daniel 11.
Does this sound like the North and the South coalitions of Daniel?:

yes, it does. the North ans South coalitions are always at odds it seems.
This very day, news of Iran and Turkey having meetings:

Mention is also made of the heads of the countries planning to visit each other. Is this yet another indication that the king of the North’s alliance is coalescing? Will be interesting to watch!
End-time nations in te Bible prophecy explained very accurately, these are Middle Easter Nations. Also to my understanding, Cush comprises of Ethiopia, Eritrea & Sudan, not exclusively the later according to OT, so also part of Yemen belongs to Teman, the region close to present Saudi Arabia.
