Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
38:14-16 Israel would be rich, living in peace and experiencing the fruit of obedient trust in the Lord. However, such obedience does not eliminate the possibility of threatening circumstances (cp. John 16:33). The odds might have seemed stacked against Israel, but Gog had failed to reckon with the Lord. The Lord would use Gog and his allies as a tool for displaying his holiness in the sight of all the nations.
