Lamentation
The children of Israel represent 'lamentation' through various things which signified evil of the church among them. When they were punished for their actions, they then represented repentance and humiliation.
(Referenser: Apocalypse Revealed 492)
Ezekiel 38:15-16
15
You shall come from your place out of the uttermost parts of the north, you, and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army;
16
and you shall come up against my people Israel, as a cloud to cover the land: it shall happen in the latter days, that I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know me, when I shall be sanctified in you, Gog, before their eyes.
