"After writing some prescient political thrillers based on Old Testament prophecy, Joel Rosenberg writes the book behind the novels to explain his reading of Ezekiel 38-39 and the War of Gog and Magog. This is some pretty mind-boggling stuff. We read it for my book group and the discussion leader used the Church Old Testament study guide (from seminary?) to compare a lot of Rosenberg's conclusions with our own teaching's and latter-day prophecy; he is spot-on. There are some things he overlooked, but overall this was a really interesting and compelling read. It made me wish I'd been paying more attentiont to the current events in the Mid-East. Time to do that."

" Very informative and lends understanding to the thinking of both sides in the Middle East. I follow the Middle East news and Joel's weblog with interest to see how events play out. I have a love and concern for the Christians in the Middle East and see how important it is to stand with them as well as pray for and love their enemies. Great book about Bible prophecy and how we need to look at world events through the lense of Scripture. "
— Traci, 2/17/2014" Rosenberg has interesting insight into the middle east and signs of the times. This history of how his novels came about was fascinating and crazy. "
— Brooke, 2/14/2014" a fascinating look at how one man with Jewish heritage who converted to Christianity predicted 9/11 and the future battle between Israel and Russia based on Ezekiel38-39 "
— Celestia, 1/29/2014" This book will make you look at the headlines and say "hmmmmmmm" "
— Elizabeth, 1/26/2014" Excellent study of the state of the world looking through the lenses of political, economics and biblical prophecy. "
— Winnifred, 1/8/2014" Very interesting view of Ezekiel 38 and 39. "
— Isserlin, 1/2/2014" While books about current events tend to get outdated very quickly, I would still recommend this one for the behind-the-scenes look at politics in the U.S. and the Middle East, for its emphasis on interpreting current events through the "third lens" of Scripture, and for Joel Rosenberg's interpretation of how the Ezekiel prophecies about Gog and Magog will be fulfilled. "
— Mamagrids, 12/22/2013" The book is a look at the prophecy in Ezekiel against Gog. The author makes a connection to current day Iran. It was a deep look into the events in recent years in the mid-east through Biblical lens. Interesting read but filled with names, dates, events hard to keep track of by me "
— Rose, 12/17/2013" I'd be tempted to label this as typical alarmist, speculative prophecy-in-the-news today stuff along the lines of the well worn path of Hal Lindsay and Tim La Shaye, but at least Rosenberg is much more of an insider on the issues he speaks of, and goes to the sources as much as he can. "
— Bob, 12/15/2013" Very interesting book that connects the prophecies of Ezekiel 38,39 (concerning the war of Gog and Magog)to current events. I enjoyed it, some parts scared me, but I guess what's coming is coming. I thought it was a little repetitive so only 3 stars. "
— Stephanie, 11/18/2013" I love this author! I read all fictional series and enjoyed this one as well. "
— Regina, 11/16/2013" Fascinating is not enough to describe this book. Truly interesting to see the parallels what is happening in the world today. "

— Eric, 2/8/2013" I very much enjoyed reading the politics, the history and the scriptural aspects concerning Biblical prophecy and the last days regarding Israel. I would recommend this book. "
— Camille, 2/5/2013" Excellent book for foreign policy geeks that are also Christian... really dry, though. "
— David, 1/1/2013" Excellent eschatological study with vibrant insight "
— Roseanna, 8/11/2012" VERY THOUGHT PROVOKING AND ACCURATE "
— Garrick, 3/13/2012" Sometimes the most obvious things are so simple and are right in front of us that we tend to ignore them. "
— Mike, 11/22/2011" Bible prophecy in action! Reading the newspaper headlines these days is just like reading the book of Ezekiel written around 600 BC. Absolutely amazing and applicable to every single human being!! "
— Kawai, 8/22/2011" Very interesting book if you are interested in and by Biblical prophecies. It becomes more interesting all the time as the author continues to predict future events by using Biblical prophecy. "
— Jason, 8/1/2011" You have to read this book. I tell the same thing to all my friends and family. "
— Tere, 5/26/2011" A great book, although some of it is chronologic biography of him researching his fiction series. Still, he gives a lot of info and backs it up with news headlines. A must read! "
— Sheldon, 5/14/2011" Excellent book for foreign policy geeks that are also Christian... really dry, though. "
— David, 4/6/2011" Whether or not you believe in the Judeo-Christian set of beliefs, it is still a great source for gaining a different perspective on the crisis in the middle east. A great, educational read! "
— Maija, 1/8/2011" A book for the times and very thought provoking and caused me to do more research into the items mentioned in the book. "
— Gordon, 12/31/2010" Very informative-- smart, yet shocking "open-your-eyes" reality that really continues to reinforce that the Bible is not only relevant, but it's both current and still prophetic 2000 years after it was penned. "
— Nathan, 12/4/2010" Gives the background information on middle east mindset and politics that he uses for his entertaining novels. Nonfiction. "

— Howard, 9/17/2010" Interestingand compelling interpretation of the prophecies of Ezekiel38 and 39. "

— Lisa, 8/14/2010" Very interesting book that connects the prophecies of Ezekiel 38,39 (concerning the war of Gog and Magog)to current events. I enjoyed it, some parts scared me, but I guess what's coming is coming. I thought it was a little repetitive so only 3 stars. "
— Stephanie, 7/31/2010" No one has a better understanding of current events in lieu of biblical perspective - with the possible exception of David Jeremiah - than Joel Rosenberg. He has his finger on the pulse of world events and describes things in light of Scripture. "
— Frank, 7/26/2010" MUST READ! We need to know what's going on in the Middle East and Joel Rosenberg is on top of all the latest news. Went to Israel with him and he has a wealth of knowledge and perspective! "
— Pam, 7/11/2010" Fascinating assessment of modern geo-political situation in the Middle East, looking through the lens of the Bible. A thought-provoking read for believers and open-minded non-believers alike. "
