Jewish Mythology - End of the World

The Jewish Apocalypse holds similar themes to both Christian and Muslim Apocalyptic tales, but lacks in elements such as a defined hell and afterlife.

According to the Torah, a Messiah will arrive to lead the people of the world. While the actual details of the Messiah's actions are unclear, the Messiah will abolish all of the sin and evil present in the world. The Torah emphasizes the Messiah's role as the model leader.

Details concerning heaven and other forms of after life are not expressly discussed in the texts concerning the Jewish Apocalypse.
