Messiah
Question
I believe we won’t live until the year 6000, but theoretically, if we did live until then and the world remained as it is, without the Messiah, Gog and Magog, or whatever—would that be supposed to affect the truth of the religion? In other words, does the fact that there is no complete redemption and no utopian reality that comes to pass detract from Judaism in terms of its purpose?
Answer
Why did you decide on 6000 years? And why according to the Common Era? If anything, it would be 6000 on the Jewish calendar, meaning a little over two hundred years from now. In any case, in my opinion this is just a myth.
