The War. The Kings of the Earth will drive their armies
against Jerusalem (at Yahweh’s bequest), but then it gets crazy and bloody. It’s a time of doom for the nations. Yahweh will punish the world by fire and by his sword. He will judge the earth, and many will be killed by him. “My decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out upon them my indignation, all my burning anger; for in the fire of my jealousy all the earth shall be consumed. I will set about to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem”. Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths
Their slain will be thrown out, and their corpses will give
off their stench, and the mountains will be drenched with their blood.
