Ezekiel39:6

6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessely in the Isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.

By an unusual judgement from God.

Either civil dissensions, as Egypt was consumed by, as chap. 30.16. Or else the destroying pestilence, which alwayes carrieth with it a burning distemper, or Fever. Or that Fire, and Brimstone mentioned, chap. 38.22. Or whatever this Fire was, it should devour, and lay desolate.

Who perhaps thought their scituation would be their safety, though Gog fell on the Land, the Ships, and Isles might escape not so, for the same hand will send the Fire on the Isles, and their inhabitants, which sent it on Gog, possibly the Tyrians, and Sidonians may be aimed at.
