Can any Tolkien lore autists explain this to me? What exactly is Sam seeing a vision of? Was he alluding to Eru vs Melkor in microcosm? Or am I seeing something that isn't there?

He's seeing a vision of a powerful and corrupt figure. The white-clad creature is the hobbit, and the wheel of fire the Ring.

Eru never, as far I can remember, fought Melkor. The valar, those good for nothing fuckers, defeated him twice.

I don't think it is meant to be specified so precisely.
