We have heard numerous stories on HarMegiddon (Armageddon) but if the story you heard doesn't match up with what Alahim's word says then it's a fantasy or fictional and is a lie. In this short study let's examine what HarMegiddon means as stated by Yahukanon (John) which is a Hebrew word.
Rev16:13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs;
Rev16:14 for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth, and of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of the Al the Almighty.
Rev16:15 (Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, lest he shall walk naked and they shall see his shame.)
Rev16:16 And they gathered them together to the place which in Hebrew is called Har-Megiddon.
A spiritual comparison to what the word of Alahim has to say will help us understand what Har-Magiddon means.

Now let's look up Megiddo in Old Testament
Judges 1:27 Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of MEGIDDO and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Jg 1:28 And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
The children of Yisharal when occupied the land of Canaan were specifically instructed by Yahusha (Joshua) that they should drive out the inhabitants of Canaan but we have mention of the tribe of Manasseh not drive out few of the inhabitants of Canaan and one of the inhabitants not driven out from was Megiddo.
Ps106:34 They did not destroy the peoples, as Yahuah commanded them,
35 But they mingled with the Gentiles and learned their practices,
The spiritual picture of the spirit of devils out of the mouth of dragon, beast and false prophet is the Gentile population who wouldn't turn away from their Greek-Roman culture but would sit inside of Yisharal as the Canaanites whom Manasseh did not drive out. The tables would one day turn around as Yisharal would would be runned over by the pagan Greek-Roman culture.
Zec12:8 In that day Yahuah shall defend around the inhabitants of Yerushalam, and the one who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like Alahim, like the angel of Yahuah before them
Zec12:9 And it shall be, in that day I shall set about to destroy all the nations that come against Yerushalam.
Zec12:10 I shall pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Yerushalam, the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that they shall look on Me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they shall be bitter over Him as one that is in bitterness over a firstborn.
Zec12:11 In that day there shall be great mourning in Yerushalam, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
What is this mourning of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo?
2Ki 23:29 In his days Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt went up to the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates. And King Yo’shiYahu (Josiah) went to meet him, and when he saw him he killed him at Megiddo.
2Ki23:30 And his servants made him ride dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Yerushalam and buried him in his own tomb. And the people of the land took Aleph Tau Yahu’achaz (Jehoahaz) the son of Yo’shiYahu (Josiah) and anointed him and made him king instead of his father.
While 2 Kings 23 doesn't mention anything of the great mourning in Yerushalam we must look at the book of Chronicles which is a parallel account of this.
2Chr 35:20 After all this, when Josiah had prepared the Aleph Tau temple, Neco king of Egypt came up to fight against Carchemish on the Euphrates, and Josiah went out to engage him.
2Chr 35:21 But he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O King of Yahudah?
I'm not against you today but with the house of war and Alahim uttered to hurry, cease from me,from Alahim who is with me, so that He shall not destroy you.
2Chr 35:22 But Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and did not listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of Alahim, but came to fight on the plain of Megiddo.
2Chr35:23 And the archers shot at King Josiah, and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am badly wounded.
2Chr35:24 And his servants took him out of the chariot and carried him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Yerushalam where he died and was buried in the tombs of his fathers. And all Yahudah and Yerushalam mourned for Josiah.
2Chr 35:25 Then Jeremiah lamented for Josiah. And all the singers and the singstresses speak about Josiah in their lamentations to this day. And they made them as a statute in Yisrael; behold, they are written in the Lamentations
The Egyptian army, led by Pharaoh Necho, wanted to pass through Judea en route to Assyria, and Josiah refused them passage. The Midrash (In Judaism, the Midrash (/ˈmɪdrɑːʃ/;[1] Hebrew: מדרש; plural midrashim) is the body of exegesis of Torah texts along with homiletic stories as taught by Chazal (Rabbinical Jewish sages of the post-Temple era) that provide an intrinsic analysis to passages in the Tanakh) explains that Josiah based his refusal on the verse (Lev 26:6) , “I will grant peace in the land . . . and no army will pass through your land.” If there will be peace in the land, then obviously no hostile armies will pass through it; so obviously Alahim is informing us that when we follow His commandments, even armies that are at peace with us will not pass through.
Josiah understood the verse correctly, but he was unaware of the fact that the population was not observing Alahim's commandments—despite his best efforts they were worshipping idols, and as such the nation was not worthy of the great blessing promised in the verse. The Midrash also interprets the passage 2 Chr 35:22 ....and did not listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of Alahim as Jeremiah along with the messengers sent from Necho to Josiah (v 21) attempted to convince Josiah to allow the Egyptians passage, but he refused to budge from his position and not that Neco prophesied to Josiah the words of Alahim.
Rev16:13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs;
Rev16:14 for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth, and of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of the Al the Almighty.
Rev16:15 (Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, lest he shall walk naked and they shall see his shame.)
Rev16:16 And they gathered them together to the place which in Hebrew is called Har-Megiddon.
A spiritual comparison to what the word of Alahim has to say will help us understand what Har-Magiddon means.

Now let's look up Megiddo in Old Testament
Judges 1:27 Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of MEGIDDO and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Jg 1:28 And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
The children of Yisharal when occupied the land of Canaan were specifically instructed by Yahusha (Joshua) that they should drive out the inhabitants of Canaan but we have mention of the tribe of Manasseh not drive out few of the inhabitants of Canaan and one of the inhabitants not driven out from was Megiddo.
Ps106:34 They did not destroy the peoples, as Yahuah commanded them,
35 But they mingled with the Gentiles and learned their practices,
The spiritual picture of the spirit of devils out of the mouth of dragon, beast and false prophet is the Gentile population who wouldn't turn away from their Greek-Roman culture but would sit inside of Yisharal as the Canaanites whom Manasseh did not drive out. The tables would one day turn around as Yisharal would would be runned over by the pagan Greek-Roman culture.
Zec12:8 In that day Yahuah shall defend around the inhabitants of Yerushalam, and the one who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like Alahim, like the angel of Yahuah before them
Zec12:9 And it shall be, in that day I shall set about to destroy all the nations that come against Yerushalam.
Zec12:10 I shall pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Yerushalam, the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that they shall look on Me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they shall be bitter over Him as one that is in bitterness over a firstborn.
Zec12:11 In that day there shall be great mourning in Yerushalam, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
What is this mourning of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo?
2Ki 23:29 In his days Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt went up to the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates. And King Yo’shiYahu (Josiah) went to meet him, and when he saw him he killed him at Megiddo.
2Ki23:30 And his servants made him ride dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Yerushalam and buried him in his own tomb. And the people of the land took Aleph Tau Yahu’achaz (Jehoahaz) the son of Yo’shiYahu (Josiah) and anointed him and made him king instead of his father.
While 2 Kings 23 doesn't mention anything of the great mourning in Yerushalam we must look at the book of Chronicles which is a parallel account of this.
2Chr 35:20 After all this, when Josiah had prepared the Aleph Tau temple, Neco king of Egypt came up to fight against Carchemish on the Euphrates, and Josiah went out to engage him.
2Chr 35:21 But he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O King of Yahudah?
I'm not against you today but with the house of war and Alahim uttered to hurry, cease from me,from Alahim who is with me, so that He shall not destroy you.
2Chr 35:22 But Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and did not listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of Alahim, but came to fight on the plain of Megiddo.
2Chr35:23 And the archers shot at King Josiah, and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am badly wounded.
2Chr35:24 And his servants took him out of the chariot and carried him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Yerushalam where he died and was buried in the tombs of his fathers. And all Yahudah and Yerushalam mourned for Josiah.
2Chr 35:25 Then Jeremiah lamented for Josiah. And all the singers and the singstresses speak about Josiah in their lamentations to this day. And they made them as a statute in Yisrael; behold, they are written in the Lamentations
The Egyptian army, led by Pharaoh Necho, wanted to pass through Judea en route to Assyria, and Josiah refused them passage. The Midrash (In Judaism, the Midrash (/ˈmɪdrɑːʃ/;[1] Hebrew: מדרש; plural midrashim) is the body of exegesis of Torah texts along with homiletic stories as taught by Chazal (Rabbinical Jewish sages of the post-Temple era) that provide an intrinsic analysis to passages in the Tanakh) explains that Josiah based his refusal on the verse (Lev 26:6) , “I will grant peace in the land . . . and no army will pass through your land.” If there will be peace in the land, then obviously no hostile armies will pass through it; so obviously Alahim is informing us that when we follow His commandments, even armies that are at peace with us will not pass through.
Josiah understood the verse correctly, but he was unaware of the fact that the population was not observing Alahim's commandments—despite his best efforts they were worshipping idols, and as such the nation was not worthy of the great blessing promised in the verse. The Midrash also interprets the passage 2 Chr 35:22 ....and did not listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of Alahim as Jeremiah along with the messengers sent from Necho to Josiah (v 21) attempted to convince Josiah to allow the Egyptians passage, but he refused to budge from his position and not that Neco prophesied to Josiah the words of Alahim.
The lamentation of Jeremiah was brought to rememberance when king of Babylon came against Egypt because Egypt had killed a righteous man of Yahuah i.e. Josiah who served him with all his heart.
Jer 46:1 That which came as the word of Yahuah to YirmeYahu (Jeremiah) the prophet
concerning the Gentiles.
Jer 46:2 To Egypt, concerning the army of Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt,
which was by the Euphrates river at Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated
in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Yahudah
Jer 46:10 For this is the day of Yahuah Alahim of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for Yahuah Alahim of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.
Its no coincidence that this is all tied up to the river Euphrates where Yahukanon (John) saw Euphrates dry up to make way for the KINGS of the EAST and these kings of the east like king of Egypt are all the Gentile nations coming in with their pagan Greek-Roman culture into Yisharal to defile it.
Re 16:12 ¶ And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
Re 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of Alahim Almighty.
Re 16:16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Har-Megiddon.
Ps 79:1 ¶ <<A Psalm of Asaph.>> O Alahim, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
2 The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
Zec 11:9 Then I said, I shall not pasture you. What is to die, let it die, and what is to be annihilated, let it be annihilated; who are left let those eat woman, Aleph Tau flesh neighbors.
Zec 11:10 I took my Aleph Tau staff Aleph Tau Kindness (referring to the Messiah) and broke it apart, to break my Aleph Tau covenant which I had made with Aleph Tau all the peoples.
Zec 11:11 So it was broken on that day, and thus the afflicted of the flock who were watching me realized that it was the word of Yahuah
Re 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Master was crucified.
The elect when they see whom they have pierced will mourn with great lamentation as the mourning for Josiah of Hadadrimmon in the valley of MEGIDDON. Yisharal has a serious charge on him and we are identified with Yisharal of rejecting the King of Yahudim (Jews) and asking for Caesar. Hence Yahuah gave his host to Caesar (Rome).When elect see this and realize whom they pierced they will mourn as we are today. In that day Yahuah says he will not hear us.
1 Samuel 8:18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and Yahuah will not hear you in that day.
Zechariah 13:1-2 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. [2] And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Yahuah of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.
In conclusion Har-Megiddon is symbolically the mountain of Yahuah's vengeance where he will gather all the pagan Greek-Roman nations who came against Yahusha and his people Yisharal and blot them out for killing his truthful testimony.
