MAGOG - M>@ - (region of Gog). In kjv@Genesis:10:2) Magog appears as the second son of Japheth; in kjv@Ezekiel:38:2 kjv@Ezekiel:39:1 kjv@Ezekiel:39:6) it appears as a country or people of which Gog was the prince. The notices of Magog would lead us to fix a northern locality: it is expressly stated by Ezekiel that "he was to come up from the sides of the north," kjv@Ezekiel:39:2) from a country adjacent to that of Togarmah or Armenia, ch. 58:6 and not far from "the isles" or maritime regions of Europe. ch. kjv@Ezekiel:39:6) The people of Magog further appear as having a force of cavalry, kjv@Ezekiel:38:16) and as armed with the bow. ch. kjv@Ezekiel:39:3) From the above data, may conclude that Magog represents the important race of the Scythians.
