7 7 Nebuchadnezzar’s Image = Nations Under King of the North “It is impossible that Nebuchadnezzar's image can represent any other imperial confederacy of nations than that under the King of the North in the time of the end.” Brother John Thomas, Exposition of Daniel, p. 88

8 8 Ezekiel’s List of Gog’s Army “The names given in Ezekiel's list of Gog's army, are representative of the countries known to have existed under the dynastic rule of the gold, the silver, the brass and the iron.” Exposition of Daniel, p. 88

9 9 Ezekiel’s List of Gog’s Army Gogue’s [Dominion] will include so much of the territory as to entitle his dominion to be represented by Nebuchadnezzar’s Image. Elpis Israel pages 449-450. Logos ed.

14 14 Tubal: A nomadic tribe associated with the scythians. Along with Meshech, its name is preserved in the city later founded by its desendants.

15 15 Persia: Easily identifiable as Iran

16 16 Libya: A tribe of Africa

17 17 Khusitan Cush: Genesis 2:13, 10:6-8; Isaiah 18:1; Judges 3:8

18 18 Brother Thomas on the Role of Iraq in Asia and now called Cushistan The reader must bear in mind, that there are two separate and distinct regions known in Scripture by the name of Cush; the one, in Asia and now called Cushistan: the other, in Africa, styled Abyssinia and Ethiopia. Eureka vol. 5, page 249 Cushistan As the Gog of the land of Magog, the Autocrat of nations will be prepared to marshal under his banner the forces of Persia, Cushistan, Phut, Gomer, and Togarmah of the north quarters, in addition to those of his hereditary domain of "all the Russias". Eureka vol.5, page 255

28 28 Unwalled Villages – Without Walls – No Bars! No Gates And this their expectation will not be deceived; for, before Gogue invades their country, it is described by the prophet, as "a land of unwalled villages, whose inhabitants are at rest, and dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates; and possessed of silver and gold, cattle and goods, dwelling in the midst of the land" (Eze. 38:11-13). Now any person acquainted with the present insecure condition of Palestine under the Ottoman dominion must be satisfied from the testimony, that some other power friendly to Israel must then have become paramount over the land, which is able to guarantee protection to them, and to put the surrounding tribes in fear. This is all that is needed, namely, security for life and property, and Palestine would be as eligible for Jewish emigration as the United States have proved for the Gentiles. Elpis Israel, Page 455. Logos Ed.
