Zechariah 14:1-4 “A day of the LORD is coming when your plunder will be divided in your presence. I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle. The city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women raped. Half the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.”
“Then the LORD will go out to fight against those nations as He fights on a day of battle. On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the east. The Mount of Olives will be split in half from east to west, forming a huge valley, so that half the mountain will move to the north and half to the south.”
Zechariah 14:9 “On that day Yahweh will become King over all the earth—Yahweh alone, and His name alone. “
Revelation 16:16 “So they assembled them at the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon”.
