 | | It is not at all improbable that Jewish eschatology in its later developments was powerfully influenced by the Persian faith. | | | Peculiar elements in Pauls eschatology are the doctrines of the Rapture of the Saints (I Thess. | | | A millennial reign of Christ on earth is interposed between the first resurrection, confined to the saints and especially the martyrs, and the second resurrection for the rest of the dead. |

| | Eschatology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Eschatology (from the Greek eschatos meaning "last" + -logy) is a part of theology concerned with the final events in the history of the world or the ultimate fate of human kind, commonly phrased as the end of the world. | | | The Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah has many identical aspects to the Islamic belief in Qiyamah, such as the title of, "Day of the sounding of the Shofar". | | | The Jewish calendar (luach) functions completely on the assumption that time begins at the Creation of the world by God in Genesis. |

| | Messianic Judaism - In Search of Messianic Jewish Thought |
| | Jewishness and the Judaisms which have emerged within it ultimately owe their existence to divine prerogative, God’s calling into being of the Jewish people to be a light and a witness to the nations. | | | This “Judaism” is not properly “Jewish” in the original sense that God intended “Jewishness” to be - a biblical culture and identity which reflects God’s presence and values, and is fulfilled in Christ. | | | As I understand it, the key argument Baruch seeks to establish, and one with which not all will agree, is that “Judaism” is not “Jewish.” By “Judaism” he means the religious system developed by the Rabbis in the light of the destruction of the Temple, Diaspora existence and rejection of Jesus. |

| | Eschatology |
| | Eschatology literally means the study of the eschaton, the times of the end, 'last things', or 'end times.' In Zoroastrianism, Christianity and in Norse heathen theology, eschatology is a theology concerning the end of the world, as predicted in the prophecies of these faiths, and as recorded in their sacred texts. | | | In this broader sense, eschatology can refer to the messiah, a messianic era, the afterlife, and the soul in religions which have such beliefs. | | | It can also be the study of general afterlife concepts of other religions, especially the western monotheistic faiths. |

| | The truth is that eschatology is not exclusively the domain of religion. | | | The most striking example of a secular eschatology would be Marxism: the convulsions and agonies of the class war, its evils resolving themselves into the classless society, the withering of the state and the blissful existence ever after. | | | The fact that reincarnation is part of Jewish tradition comes as a surprise to many people. |

| | James M. Scott maintains that the prospect that "all Israel will be saved" (Rom 11:26) is firmly rooted in OT and Jewish eschatology. | | | He concludes that kai houtos has the temporal sense of "then"; that "all Israel" should be seen in light of the twelve tribes; that "will be saved" refers to the parousia, when, like Paul, Israel will be confronted by the risen Christ. | | | Lawrence H. Schiffman finds three viewpoints in the Dead Sea Scrolls: the restoration still to come; a shift in focus from the entire Jewish people to the sectarians; and a restoration yielding to Utopian vision-ostensibly a return to the past but actually the creation of a new future. |
