end times

end times
a) The days leading up to the second coming of the Messiah (Christ), when the world will be judged.

Hellenistic Judaism was familiar with the idea that deceit is characteristic of the end times (see T. Levi 10:2; 16:1).

b) Corresponding periods in other religious traditions.

The apocalyptic writings are at times quite fascinating, especially since they stand in some relationship to the apocalyptic visions of the end times found in both the OT and NT.
