Ezekiel 39:8

Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord God ,.... That is, the salvation of his people, and the destruction of their enemies; the prophecy concerning all this is come to pass, and the whole is accomplished; thus, because of the certainty thereof, it is represented as if the time was actually come, and the thing was really done; for the event is as sure as if it was now fulfilled:

this is the day whereof I have spoken ; by the Prophet Ezekiel and others; See Gill on Ezekiel 38:17 .
