4. http://bibleatlas.org/full/armageddon.htm ARMAGEDDON Har-Maged ṓ n, Ἁ rmagedèn, “Mount of Megiddo.” This name is found only in Revelation 16:16. It is described as the rallying-place of the kings of the whole world who, led by the unclean spirits issuing from the mouth of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet, assembled here for “the war of the great day of God, the Almighty” (v. 14). In the history of Israel it had been the scene of never-to- be-forgotten battles. Here took place the fatal struggle between Josiah and Pharaoh-necho (2 Kings 23:29; 2 Chronicles 35:22). Long before, the hosts of Israel had won glory here, in the splendid victory over Sisera and his host (Judges 5:19). These low hills around Megiddo, with their outlook over the plain of Esdraelon, have witnessed perhaps a greater number of bloody encounters than have ever stained a like area of the world’s surface. There was, therefore, a peculiar appropriateness in the choice of this as the arena of the last mighty struggle between the powers of good and evil. Har-Magedon may stand for the battlefield without indicating any particular locality. William Ewing, “Har-Magedon,” in The International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia, gen. ed. James Orr (Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1956), 2:1340. Joe Griffin Media Ministries
