The year 6,000 is the end of the current world, and the beginning of the World to Come. Until then, the footsteps of the Messiah will grow louder.

-Seder Olam Rabbah, Chapter 30
4th Age | Messiah | Midrash
  • Truth will spring from the earth, and righteousness will look down from heaven. In the days of the Messiah, the times of God will become clear, and the righteous will walk in His light.
  • The seventh millennium will be a time of peace and renewal, as it is written: ‘And on the seventh day, God rested and was refreshed’ (Exodus 31:17). So, too, the world will rest in the seventh millennium.
  • God created the world to last six thousand years. In the seventh millennium, all souls will stand before the Throne of Glory, and the righteous will receive their reward.
  • The Messiah will come in a generation that either fully keeps the covenant or completely breaks it. In either case, God will act for the sake of His name.
  • Elijah will not only announce the Messiah but will also explain the mysteries of the years and the cycles, for all things have their appointed time.
  • The Messiah will come in the year of the Shemitah (Sabbatical year), and the wars of Gog and Magog will precede him.
