8. Gog and Magog — ( :- ; see on :- ). Magog is a general name for northern nations of Japheth's posterity, whose ideal head is Gog ( Genesis 10:2 ). A has but one Greek article to "Gog and Magog," whereby the two, namely, the prince and the people, are marked as having the closest connection. B reads the second article before Magog wrongly. HILLER [ Onomasticon ] explains both words as signifying "lofty," "elevated." For "quarters" the Greek is "corners." to battle — Greek, "to the war," in A and B. But ANDREAS omits "the." return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-9" class="com-number"
