Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog,.... As he had been ordered to do before, and must still continue to do it:
behold, I am against thee, O Gog; which is repeated for the confirmation of it, and to inject terror into him; for terrible it is to have God against any:
the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; :-, the Septuagint version adds "Ros" here as there.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The present chapter describes the defeat of Evil and the triumph of God and His people. As the prophet predicted the advance of Evil under the figure of the invasion of an actual army; so he declares the overthrow of Evil by the figure of a host routed and slain, and the consequent purification of a land, partially overrun and disturbed. Some forgetting that this is a figure, have searched history to find out some campaign in the land of Israel, some overthrow of invaders, on which to fix this prophecy, and have assigned localities to the burial-place âHamon-Gogâ Ezekiel 39:11.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXXIX
The prophet goes on to denounce the Divine judgments against
Gog and his army, 1-7;
and describes their dreadful slaughter, 8-10,
and burial, 11-16,
in terms so very lofty and comprehensive, as must certainly
denote some very extraordinary interposition of Providence in
behalf of the Jews. And to amplify the matter still more, the
prophet, with peculiar art and propriety, delays the summoning
of all the birds and beasts of prey in nature to feast on the
slain, (in allusion to the custom of feasting on the remainder
of sacrifices,) till after the greater multitudes are buried;
to intimate that even the remainder, and as it were the
stragglers of such mighty hosts, would be more than sufficient
to satisfy their utmost rapacity, 17-20.
The remaining verses contain a prediction of the great
blessedness of the people of God in Gospel times, and of the
stability of the kingdom of Christ, 21-29.
It will be proper to remark that the great northern expedition
against the natural Israel, described in this and the preceding
chapter, is, from its striking resemblance in the main
particulars, put by the writer of the Apocalypse,
(Ezekiel 20:7-10,)
for a much more formidable armament of a multitude of nations
in the four quarters of the earth against the pure Christian
Church, the MYSTICAL Israel; an event still extremely remote,
and which it is thought shall immediately precede the
destruction of the world by fire, and the general judgment.
