Thou shalt: see Eze 38:9.

From thy place; out of thine own land.

Out of the north parts; from Scythia, from the Euxine and Caspian seas, and countries thereabouts.

Thou; the leader and chieftain.

Many people; mighty and numerous, as Eze 38:6,9.

Riding upon horses: see Eze 38:4.

A great company: see Eze 38:9.

And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts,…. Whose original was from Scythia, or Cathaia in Tartary, that lies to the north of China; and who will bring with him many people from the Euxine and Caspian seas, and from the northern parts of lesser Asia; and the Turk is, by many interpreters, thought to be the king of the north, in Da 11:44 as before observed:

thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses; the Turkish armies consisting chiefly of horse, as has been observed on

Eze 38:4:

a great company, and a mighty army; for quantity many, for quality strong and mighty. The Targum is,

“many armies, and much people;”

the Turks usually have large armies; [See comments on Eze 38:4].

Eze 38:15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

Ver. 15. Out of the north parts. ] Ab aquilone nihil boni. From spiritual Babylon comes all mischief to the Church. The king of Syria is called “king of the north” in Dan 11:6 .

A great company, and a mighty army. ] Such was the army of Antiochus Epiphanes against the Jews, of the Turk against Christians, of the Pope against the Hussites, Waldenses, &c. He deceiveth the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, to gather them together to battle, the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. Rev 20:8 He hath at his command the Italians, Walloons, Spaniards, whom Bellarmine a rightly reckoneth among the soldiers of antichrist.

Eze 38:15, These hostile people will come equipped with a strong force, consisting of both horsemen and foot soldiers. They will also he accompanied with many people which means their allies, some of whom are named in verses 5 and 6.

He and his allies would descend on Israel from the north and cover her like a storm cloud (cf. Eze 38:6; Eze 39:2; Dan 11:40-45). Coming from the north recalls the earlier invasions of the Assyrians and Babylonians, but this will be a future invasion. God would bring Gog against His people "in the last days" (cf. Eze 38:8; Eze 38:14; Eze 38:18; Eze 39:8; Eze 39:11) to teach the nations to acknowledge Yahweh. They would do this when God used Gog to demonstrate His holiness (unique deity) in their eyes. Yahweh would raise up Gog as He had raised up the Pharaoh of the Exodus to demonstrate His power when He overthrew him.
