Jewish eschatology is concerned with events that will happen in the end of days, according to the Hebrew Bible and Jewish thought. This includes the ingathering of the exiled diaspora, the coming of Jewish Messiah, afterlife, and the revival of the dead Tsadikim. Eschatology is the area of theology and philosophy concerned with the final events in the history of the world, the ultimate destiny of humanity, and related concepts. In Judaism, end times are usually called the "end of days" (''aḥarit ha-yamim'', אחרית הימים), a phrase that appears several times in the Tanakh. The idea of a messianic age has a prominent place in Jewish thought, and is incorporated as part of the end of days. ==Overview and textual sources== In Judaism, the main textual source for the belief in the end of days and accompanying events is the Tanakh or Hebrew Bible. In the Five Books of Moses, references are made in Deuteronomy 28-31, that the Jews will not be able to keep the Laws of Moses in the Land of Israel and will be subsequently exiled but ultimately redeemed. The books of the Hebrew Prophets elaborated and prophesied about the end of days. In rabbinic literature, the Rabbis elaborated and explained the prophecies that were found in the Hebrew Bible along with the oral law and Rabbinic traditions about its meaning.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/5849-eschatology )〕 The main tenets of Jewish eschatology are the following, in no particular order, elaborated in the Books of Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel:〔 *End of world (before everything as follows). *God redeems Israel (i.e. the Jewish people) from the captivity that began during the Babylonian Exile, in a new Exodus *God returns the Jewish people to the Land of Israel *God restores the House of David and the Temple in Jerusalem *God creates a regent from the House of David (i.e. the Jewish Messiah) to lead the Jewish people and the world and usher in an age of justice and peace *All nations recognize that the God of Israel is the only true God *God resurrects the dead *God creates a new heaven and a new earth It is also believed that history will complete itself and the ultimate destination will be reached when all mankind returns to the Garden of Eden. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jewish eschatology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
