Ezekiel 39:11

And it shal come to passe at that day, that I will giue vnto Gog a place there of graues in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the East of the Sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers, and there shall they burie Gog, and all his multitude, and they shal call it, the valley of Hamon-gog. Ezekiel 39:11 (KJV)

In Ezekiel 38 and 39, God reveals to Ezekiel the impending invasion of Israel by a coalition of nations led by a figure called Gog. Gog is described as the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and his forces come against Israel to plunder and conquer. However, God intervenes and brings about their defeat and destruction.

“And it shall come to pass in that day”: This phrase refers to the future time when God’s judgment upon Gog and his armies will occur. It points to a specific period of divine intervention.

“I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea”: This verse speaks of the burial of Gog and his multitude in a designated place in Israel. The location is described as a valley near waters that were not previously set apart; the exact modern identification of this site is uncertain. The exact identification of this place is uncertain.

“And it shall stop the noses of the passengers”: This phrase indicates that the odor from the burial site will be so overwhelming that travelers will be compelled to cover their noses, signifying the severity of the judgment. Their defeat will cause the people to pause and take notice.

“And there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude”: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.” “Hamon-gog” means “the multitude of Gog.” The burial place of Gog and all his multitude will be named ‘the valley of Hamon‑gog.’ This name serves as a reminder of the great multitude that once threatened Israel but was ultimately defeated and brought to an end by God’s intervention.

Overall, Ezekiel 39:11 portrays the utter defeat and destruction of Gog and his armies, highlighting the finality and severity of God’s judgment upon those who rise against His people. It serves as a reminder of God’s faithfulness to His promises and His ability to bring about justice in the face of overwhelming opposition.
