Megiddo National Park or is a hill located in the foothills of Carmel, near the modern settlement of the same name, famous for archaeological excavations.In ancient times, it was an important city because of its strategic position.Megiddo Hill is formed from 26 layers of ancient settlements with a height of about 60 m.
In ancient times, this place occupied an important strategic position. Key trade routes and military routes lay here. This place is associated with the most important events in history.
Napoleon called this place ideal for battles. This battlefield can accommodate two hundred thousand troops.There have been many decisive battles throughout history near the ancient city of Megiddo, in the adjacent Israelite Valley.
Due to its strategic position, Megiddo and the nearby valley have witnessed dozens of battles over the past 4,000 years.
The history and strategic position of Megiddo reveals the symbolic meaning of the word "Armageddon". Although this word occurs only once in the Bible, it is clear from the context in which it is used in the book of Revelation that Armageddon will affect the lives of everyone living on earth.
"Armageddon in the New Testament is the place of the last battle between good and evil (angels and demons) at the end of time at the End of the world, where "the kings of the whole inhabited earth..." will participate.
Rev.16:14-16.
The choice of Mount Megiddo as the site of the final battle of good and evil is symbolic: it was here that the first battle known to mankind took place (Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmose III defeated the Canaanite kings in the XV century BC), so it is here that the last one should happen ...
Anything can happen...It remains only to wait...
