Magog was a son of
Japheth (
Genesis 10:2,
1 Chronicles 1:5). Closely associated with
Gog,
Magog is also a land.
Ezekiel prophesied against
Magog in the 38th and 39th
chapter of his book. Also mentioned as one nations that Satan will deceive in the last days in
St. John's
Revelation 20:8. A few wacked
evangelical fundamentalist types believe that Magog represents
Moscow in their
premillennial eschatology.
Also a city in Quebec.
