| Sumario: | Although the cryptic word Armageddon appears only in Revelation 16:16, one wonders how it has claimed as much attention as it has in both religious writings and in the secular media. The mere mention of the word conjures for both religious and secular audiences the notion of some kind of world cataclysm or final battle between good and evil. This article will explore the relationship between Armageddon and Megiddo, the historical understanding of the word in the earliest Latin and Greek commentaries, and John's meaning of the word in Revelation. |
