Ezekiel 39:1 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 39:1

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; (See Gill on Ezekiel 38:2), the Septuagint version adds "Ros" here as there.

Ezekiel 39:1 In-Context

1 "So you, human being, prophesy against Gog; say that Adonai ELOHIM says: 'I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshekh and Tuval.
2 I will turn you around, lead you on and bring you from the far reaches of the north against the mountains of Isra'el.
3 But then I will knock your bow out of your left hand and make your arrows drop from your right hand.
4 You will fall on the mountains of Isra'el, you, your troops and all the peoples with you; I will give you to be eaten up by all kinds of birds of prey and by wild animals.
5 You will fall in the open field, for I have spoken,' says Adonai ELOHIM.
