I just received Ron Rhodes' new book "New Babylon Rising: The Emerging End Times World Order." Some quick observations. First, nearly every book in his bibliography is from a dispensationalist writer. There are a few exceptions. One of them is Daniel Block's commentary on Ezekiel (vol. 2).

Second, the longest footnote in the book is on the correct translation of the Hebrew word 'rosh.' Is it an adjective (chief) or a geographical place, a proper noun? Rhodes does not mention ...Block's comments on the passage or fellow-dispensationalist Charles Ryrie's comment in his Study Bible where he writes, "'The prince of Rosh' is better translated as 'the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.'" I have a comprehensive discussion of the various arguments used to identify the meaning of the Hebrew term 'rosh' in my book "The Gog and Magog End-Time Alliance" where I interact with the authorities and arguments Rhodes mentions in his long footnote. In fact, I devote an entire chapter to the subject. Everything Rhodes mentions in his footnote was answered in my book in the 2006 and 2016 editions. It's most likely one of the most comprehensive studies on the subject that directly refutes his arguments. Of course, it's possible that he doesn't know anything about the book. But he does since he mentions my view in Ron Rhodes, "Northern Storm Rising: Russia, Iran, and the Emerging End-Times Military Coalition Against Israel" (Eugene, OR: Harvest House, 2008), 14, note.
