Della Mirandola
Rosh is a word that means chief or main, like in Rosh Hashana. It appears 600 times in the Old Testament. You have translated it as Russia?? This is embarrassing. Gog is the King of Magog and the Chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal and all these are places in todays Turkey and Northern Syria (There are literally places called Gog , and Magog in Turkey and Meshesch and Tubal are regions of Turkey and Northern Syria, while Gomer is Northern Turkey). In the Septuagint version of Amos 7:1 it says Gog comes with Kings from the East (so Irak, Persia, Afghanistan, etc.). Amos 7:1 Thus has the Lord God shewed me; and, behold, a swarm of locusts coming from the east; and, behold, one caterpillar, king Gog.
