Firstly, it is the place to which everything returns in the “great” Jubilee, i.e. the completion of the world’s cycle of 7000 years. We are familiar with the basic concept from the Torah’s יובל (jubilee), the jubilee year legislation. The second reason is that a certain “inner spirit” reposes in that region. This is a spirit which comes directly from the emanation חכמה (wisdom), which in turn is fed by the אין סוף (eternal), the ultimate of all causes, G–d’s Essence, at all times. The philological origin of the expression תשובה (repent), is derived from Isaiah 30,15, בשובה ונחת תושעון, “Through returning and rest will you be saved.”

When calculating the number of Sabbath days in the 6,000 years and adding the fact that the 1,000-year interval before the advent of עולם הבא is composed only of Sabbath days we get a total of 600,000 Sabbath days, or the same number as the number of the Jewish souls which experienced the Revelation and the building of the Tabernacle. This number also equals the number of letters the Torah is made up of.

They are also an allusion to the tradition that this universe will continue for 6,000 years before it will experience a metamorphosis of 1,000 years after which the עולם הבא (next world) will be ushered in. The 1,000-year interval symbolizes the concept of the Sabbath.

The prophets, who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours, searched and investigated carefully. They were trying to find out what time or circumstances the Ruach of Messiah within them was indicating when predicting the sufferings of Messiah and the glories to follow. It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves, but you—in these matters now announced to you through those who proclaimed the Good News by the Ruach ha-Kodesh sent from heaven. Even angels long to catch a glimpse of these things.
1 Peter 1:10-12
But don’t forget this one thing, loved ones—that with Yahweh one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. Yahweh is not slow in keeping His promise, as some consider slowness. Rather, He is patient toward you—not wanting anyone to perish, but for all to come to repentance. But the Day of Yahweh will come like a thief. On that day, the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will melt in fervent heat, and the earth and all its works will be exposed.
2 Peter 3:8-10
For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment passed on to them. What has happened to them confirms the truth of the proverb: ‘A dog returns to its vomit,’ and, ‘A scrubbed pig heads right back into the mud.’
2 Peter 2:21-22
