Who are the Gog and Magog?

In different religious traditions, Gog and Magog are savage half-beast half-human tribes that are enclosed somewhere on earth, and will break out in the end times to wreak havoc on humanity.

It has been said in Islamic eschatology they will appear somewhere in central Asia. This event is also connected with the appearance of a messianic figure who will defeat them.

It is often difficult to match the description of ancient prophecies with present day events, because what is happening in the physical world only disguises what is happening in higher and lower worlds.

I have personally had to rework my end-times predictions based on this fact alone.

Religious lore has preserved an ancient picture of reality that cannot be observed today, yet eschatology still rings true despite having an inner content that is as of yet inaccessible.

When, however, we consider that humanity is passing into the clairvoyant age, the content of religious scriptures will be confirmed anew. 

This will serve as the jumping off point for understanding the appearance of Gog and Magog, which has been described in eschatology.
