The Great Tribulation -- Part One
1 ) What Role did Ezekiel predict for Russia in the Great War ?
Ezekiel predicted that Russia would be involved in the great war . We find in Ezekiel 38:2-3 ancient names of those who will attack Israel in the end times :
Ezekiel 38:2-3a ( TLB ) Mn of dust , a northward and the land o a o and prophesy against Go king oeshec nd

Magog The name Magog is first found in Genesis 10 . He was the grandson of Noah and a son of Japtheth . Magog in time moved northward beyond the Black sea and the famous Caucaus mountains . This region is now known as Russia .
Gog Most Bible scholars agree that Gog is the king of Russia . As we have studied Russia over the centuries , we know that her government has not been a democracy but a kingdom or dictatorship . In the end times , Russia will no doubt be led by a strong militaristic leader .
Meshech Meshech was the ancient name of the now famous city Moscow . It represents a province or region of Russia .
Tubal The name Tubal can be traced to the city of Tobolsk , an ancient capital in Siberia . Like Meshech , Tubal represents a province or region of Russia .
The prophet Ezekiel is very clear . The region north of Israel that will wage war a ainst her in the end times will be that menacing military might — Russia herself .
