Is the Gog / Magog War Before or After the Millennium?

 

The only mention of Gog and/or Magog in the New Testament is Revelation 20:8

 

Revelation 20:

6  Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

 

7  And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

 

8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

 

9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

 

Looks like it must be after the millennium.

 

 

Shalom,
