We are fast approaching the time when the Antichrist will appear on the scene so it is important we search the scriptures to find out what God wants us to know about this entity who dominates the last three and a half years of world history prior to Jesus’ return to destroy him, the false prophet, and their army at the Battle of Armageddon.

We read a lot about Gog an “end times” despotic leader in Ezekiel and it is obvious that he is the Antichrist of Revelation. However, there is an earlier Gog prophecy that is in an extremely unlikely place, the Balaam Oracles in Numbers 22-24. It is important to know therefore that AGAG in the Balaam Oracles is GOG. The manuscript evidence is clear in both the Septuagint and the Samaritan Pentateuch the translation is Gog, not Agag. Listen to Travis and Nelson explain why it is Agag in most of the English Bible translations and yet no Agag in history fits with the prophesied events in the Balaam Oracles.
