2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:
2 I will turn you around and drag you along. I will bring you from the far north and send you against the mountains of Israel.
2 And I will turn you about and drive you forward, and bring you up from the uttermost parts of the north, and lead you against the mountains of Israel.
2 I'm going to turn you around and drag you out, drag you out of the far north and down on the mountains of Israel.
2 and I will turn you around and lead you on, bringing you up from the far north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel.
2 I will turn you around and drive you toward the mountains of Israel, bringing you from the distant north.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 39:2
Commentary on Ezekiel 39:1-10
(Read Ezekiel 39:1-10)
The Lord will make the most careless and hardened transgressors know his holy name, either by his righteous anger, or by the riches of his mercy and grace. The weapons formed against Zion shall not prosper. Though this prophecy is to be fulfilled in the latter days, it is certain. From the language used, it seems that the army of Gog will be destroyed by miracle.
