In the prophetic landscape of Ezekiel 38-39, war and the Battle of Armageddon, biblical scholars identify a specific coalition of adversaries that will rise against Israel. This group is led by Russia (identified as Magog or Rosh), which coordinates with Iran (ancient Persia), a nation that has transitioned from a historical ally to a central opponent. From the north and west, Turkey (encompassing Meshech, Tubal, and Gomer) and Armenia (Beth-togarmah) provide significant strategic support to the invasion. The southern flank is reinforced by Sudan and Ethiopia (representing ancient Cush), alongside Libya (Put), forming a massive, multi-national force. While the Ezekiel conflict focuses on this regional confederacy, the Battle of Armageddon expands to include "the kings of the whole world," often interpreted to include powers from the east, such as China, creating a global confrontation on the final day
