The Apocalypse of John is the last book of the New Testament. In John's apocalypse, the Book of Revelation, he refers to the 'unveiling' or revelation' of Jesus Christ as Messiah. This term has come to mean, in common usage, the end of the world. The simple pictures of the end of the age in the books of the Old Testament were images of the judgement of the wicked, as well as the resurrection and glorification of those who were given righteousness before God. The dead are seen in the book of Job and in some of the Psalms as being in Sheol, awaiting the final judgment. The wicked will then be consigned to eternal torment in the fires of Gehinnom, or the Lake of Fire mentioned in Revelation.
