Judaism End Of World Beliefs

Jewish believe a time of peace and righteousness will
come rather than an ending to the world. This period
will come after a period of intense turmoil and chaos
in which lawless and a breakdown in society will
occur.

The Tanakh says the world will only last 6000 years.
The year 2008 equals year 5678 according to the Torah
making the final year 2240, although this is much
debated.

There are several things, which will occur at the end
of the 6000 years, they include:

- The end of the world will see all Jews gathered back
to Israel and restored to their ancestral lands and
tribes.

- The Messiah, a descendant of David, will come and
become King of Israel and defeat Israel’s enemies,
they will come to worship the one God of Israel and
ask the King of Israel for advice.

- Building of the Third temple in Jerusalem and
resumption of services there.

- The resurrection of the dead, death will be
swallowed up forever. There will be no more hunger or
disease.

- Messiah will become King of Israel and will beat
invading armies in a final great battle known as
Armageddon, bringing in the start of a new age of
peace and holiness, weapons of war will be destroyed
and the Jewish people will experience unending joy and
happiness.
