camp of the saints and the beloved city.

We don’t know if the saints referred to here are glorified saints who reign with Jesus,
or earth-inhabitants who come to faith in Jesus during the Millennium. Either

and the “headquarters” or “capital city” of His administration, Jerusalem (the beloved city). (DG)

there is no battle. The fight is over before it begins. At this point, God
finally deals with the devil and his followers forever. (DG)
