Most say that the word Armageddon is the Anglicized form of the word Har-magedon, which is found only one time in the Bible.
It is found at Revelation 16:16. In most dictionaries the meaning of this word is said to mean "mountain of Megiddo." and that
Megiddo was a strategic location in the ancient Middle East where many decisive battles were fought. Interestingly, there is no literal "mountain" of Megiddo.
The Bible uses this expression figuratively to describe a war between God and wicked forces that would include all the nations that stand in opposition to God.
Some assert that this is a nuclear war between nations, but the Bible describes this as "the war of the Great Day of God the Almighty." (Revelation 16:14) It also says that the kings of the earth will be gathered together against the Christ. It is evident that there is no way that all of the armies of the world could gather around the relatively small area that is Megiddo in modern-day Israel, so the Bible is using Megiddo (or Armageddon) as the symbolic place of gathering of all the kings of the Earth, who stand in opposition to God and his appointed king Jesus Christ.
This theory would in fact discredit the book of Revelation by implying that John incorrectly spelled "ARMAGEDDON" and that he should have spelled it "HARMAGEDDON".
Through years of extensive study I can tell you that John didn't misspell this word or should I say words. The key is translating ancient Greek to Hebrew then back to your modern language. The key to this Biblical word is knowing that Revelation was written in ancient Greek and not modern Greek and that "ARMAGEDDON" is not one word at all but two words and a name and here it is : AR = (City or Community) , The letter "M" = ( of or from ), The name "AGEDDON" = (Agidion, Giles, EGIDIO, Agidius ).
When these words and this name is now put together here is what it should read:
either - Community of Egidio, Community of Giles, Community of Agedius, Community of Agedion.
*As a metaphor for the "end of days", the term is applied to any apocalyptic or disastrous end to Earth or the life on it. The name of the 1998 Bruce Willis movie is typical even though the book of Revelation does not mention that Armageddon is a battle. The only battle that is mentioned in this passage is the battle of God Almighty. The statement "The battle of Armageddon" is not in the book of Revelation and is in fact not mentioned anywhere in the Bible.
