Gog and Magog (gŏg and mâ'gŏg). Ezekiel 38:2. Magog was the name of one of Japheth's sons. Genesis 10:2. It was also a general name of a country north of the Caucacus or Mount Taurus, or for the people of that district. Gog was the king of the country. This people seems to have sustained relations of hostility to Israel, and is associated with Antichrist Revelation 20:8.
