Beskrivelse
It's a very old idea that life on Earth will last 6000 years. It sprang from a belief in "world ages" in ancient Babylon. This present work traces that belief from its Babylonian origins, through Zoroastrianism, Judaism, and into Christian thought. Does the Bible provide the data for a mathematical determination of the end of human history? How may Christians keep the faith in the light of present knowledge, while avoiding unfounded expectaions? This book provides interesting answers.
