Don’t let anyone deceive you at all! For the gathering will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who replaces and exalts himself above every “god” or object of worship, so that he sits in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

  • Your dead will live; their corpses will rise. You who lie in the dust, awake and shout for joy, for your dew is as the dew of the dawn, and the land will give birth to the departed spirits. Come, my people, enter into your rooms [khedar, or wedding chamber], and close your doors behind you; hide for a little while until indignation runs its course. For behold, the LORD is about to come out from His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; and the earth will reveal her bloodshed, and will no longer cover her slain.
  • And he will confirm a covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will cease sacrifice and grain offering; and on the verge of abominations is he who causes horror, until a decreed complete destruction is poured out on the one who devastates.
  • If Israel repents for even a single day, the Son of David (Messiah) will come immediately. If they do not repent, the redemption will come in its appointed time.
  • When the Temple is rebuilt, the gates of wisdom will open, and Elijah will descend to teach the hidden Torah of the Messiah.
  • The Sages taught in a baraita: With regard to the seven-year period, i.e., the Sabbatical cycle, during which the Messiah, son of David, comes: During the first year, this verse will be fulfilled: “And I will cause it to rain upon one city and cause it not to rain upon another city” (Amos 4:7). During the second year of that period, arrows of famine will be shot, indicating that there will be famine only in certain places. During the third year there will be a great famine, and men, women, children, the pious, and men of action will die, and the Torah is forgotten by those who study it. During the fourth year there will be plenty but not great plenty. During the fifth year there will be great plenty and they will eat, and drink, and rejoice, and the Torah will return to those who study it. During the sixth year, heavenly voices will be heard. During the Sabbatical Year, wars, e.g., the war of Gog and Magog, will be waged involving the Jewish people. During the year after the conclusion of the Sabbatical Year, the son of David will come.
  • Before the Messiah comes, nations will tremble, and great conflicts will arise. Gog and Magog will test the faith of all, but those who trust in the Lord will see redemption.
