Meshech is listed in the table of the nations (Gen 10) as a son of Japheth (grandson of Noah) along with Gomer, Javan, Tubal, and others (Gen 10:2; 1 Chron 1:5). The descendants of this man reappear in history as a nation of people who lived for several centuries in central Asia Minor, but who were eventually pushed by their enemies into the mountainous area SE of the Black Sea. They are the Mushki of the Assyrian records, and the Muschoi of the Gr. tradition. They belong to the Indo-European family of nations. In both Biblical and secular lit. they are almost always associated with Tubal (see Tubal) another of Japheth’s sons.
Meshech (with Tubal) is referred to three times in the Book of Ezekiel, and each time in a different way. The two are listed (along with Javan) as nations who exchange slaves and vessels of bronze for the merchandise of the city of Tyre (Ezek 27:13). The next reference is contained in an oracle against Egypt (32:26) where Ezekiel declares that part of Egypt’s condemnation will be to dwell in Sheol with other uncircumcised barbarians like the men of Meshech and Tubal. Meshech and Tubal along with Egypt are included among those nations who once made the earth tremble by their might, but who have now become nothing but helpless “shades” in Sheol. In Ezekiel 38 and 39 the reference to Meshech is even more unique. On this occasion, Meshech and Tubal, now one people, seem to serve as some sort of symbol. As the dominant provinces in the land of Magog, they seem to represent all the anti-God forces in the world who are maliciously bent on destroying God’s people. In apocalyptic fashion Ezekiel seems to be describing something that is to take place in the end time (Rev 20:8). The only reference to Meshech in the Book of Psalms (120:5) is likewise used in symbolic fashion; Meshech and Kedar represent “the evil society” in which the psalmist lives.

Only God and Yahshuah can save us from the impending doom!
