The Watchtower, “Questions From Readers”
“For a number of years, our publications have explained that Gog of Magog is the name given to Satan the Devil after his ouster from heaven. … When we compare all these Scriptural references about the final attack on God’s people, it becomes evident that the name Gog of Magog refers, not to Satan, but to a coalition of nations.”
The answer states the previous identification, gives the reasons for abandoning it (a spirit creature could not be eaten by birds or buried), and substitutes a human coalition.
