“The war is described in two distinct parts, first (the War against the Kittim) described as a battle between the Sons of Light, consisting of the Sons of Levi, the Sons of Judah, and the Sons of Benjamin, and the exiled of the desert, against Edom, Moab, the Sons of Ammon, the Amalekites, and Philistia and their allies the Kittim of Asshur (referred to collectively as the army of Belial), and (those who assist them from among the wicked) who "violate the covenant.””
the army of Belial
From The Dead Sea Scrolls: "Then the Sons of Righteousness shall shine to all ends of the world continuing to shine forth until the end of the appointed seasons of darkness. Then at the time appointed by God, His great excellence shall shine for all the times of eternity; for peace and blessing, glory and joy, and long life for all Sons of Light. On the day when the Kittim fall there shall be a battle and horrible carnage before the God of Israel, for it is a day appointed by Him from ancient times as a battle of annihilation for the Sons of Darkness. On that day the congregation of the gods and the congregation of men shall engage one another, resulting in great carnage. The Sons of Light and the forces of Darkness shall fight together to show the strength of God with the roar of a great multitude and the shout of gods and men; a day of disaster. It is a time of distress for all the people who are redeemed by God. In all their afflictions none exists that is like it, hastening to its completion as an eternal redemption. On the day of their battle against the Kittim, they shall go forth for carnage in battle. In three lots the Sons of Light shall stand firm so as to strike a blow at wickedness, and in three the army of Belial shall strengthen themselves so as to force the retreat of the forces of Light. And when the banners of the infantry cause their hearts to melt, then the strength of God will strengthen the hearts of the Sons of Light. In the seventh lot; the great hand of God shall overcome Belial and all the angels of his dominion, and all the men of his forces shall be destroyed forever."
