Over the past 4000 years, no less than 34 bloody conflicts have occurred either at Megiddo or in the rich fertile fields of the Jezreel Valley below. Individuals like Joshua, Solomon, Deborah, Josiah, Nebuchadnezzar, and even the 18th-century Napoleon Bonaparte all saw this area as an important military objective. How do those battles relate to the battle of Armageddon mentioned in Revelation? Megiddo has a storied past with an important message for our present age.
