Many Jews today believe that God will one day send a Messiah who will lead the world into an age of peace and understanding. The word Messiah, which is Mashiach in Hebrew, means ‘anointed one’. It comes from the time when kings were anointed as a sign of their God-given power.
The Book of Isaiah teaches that the Messiah will be a political leader and judge. He will create a fair government in Israel, which will become a centre for all politics worldwide.
Many Jews believe that when the Messiah comes, he will:
Rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem.
Bring about the end of war so that everyone can live in peace.
Unite all people regardless of differences like religion or culture.
Bring a true awareness of God to all people.
Signal the end of the world.
Jews use the Hebrew term olam ha-ba, which means ‘the world to come’, to refer to the time after the Messiah’s arrival, which is also called the Messianic Age.

In Babylon, these rabbis, the Amoraim of the Talmud, reinterpreted Jewish history. Yes, the Land of Israel was promised to the Jews, and yes, God will one day, in his own time, return the Jews to their land and give them control of it, but this will only happen in the future when the messiah arrives

According to Judaism, Jews can only return to the holy land when the Messiah returns, builds the temple and creates a one world government.
Correct me if im wrong, I dont see any Messiah or Temple?
