Magog (ISBE)

DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD

mā´gog ( מגוג , māghōgh ; Μαγώγ , Magṓg ): Named among the sons of Japheth ( Genesis 10:2; 1 Chronicles 1:5 ). Ezekiel uses the word as equivalent to "land of Gog" (Ezekiel 38:2; Ezekiel 39:6 ). Josephus identifies the Magogites with the Scythians (Ant. , I, vi, 1). From a resemblance between the names Gog and Gyges (Gugu), king of Lydia, some have suggested that Magog is Lydia; others, however, urge that Magog is probably only a variant of Gog (Sayce in HDB ). In the Apocalypse of John, Gog and Magog represent all the heathen opponents of Messiah (Revelation 20:8 ), and in this sense these names frequently recur in Jewish apocalyptic literature.
