Eschatology

English Definitions Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines “eschatology” as a noun, derived from the Greek eschatos [last, farthest], which entered English vocabulary in 1844, as “(1) a branch of theology concerned with the final events in the history of the world or of mankind; (2) a belief concerning death, the end of the world, or the ultimate destiny of mankind; specifically: any of various Christian doctrines concerning the Second Coming, the resurrection of the dead, or the Last Judgment.”

English Definitions The Concise Oxford English Dictionary offers a more abridged definition, saying that “eschatology” refers to “the part of theology concerned with death, judgment, and destiny.”

BDAG define it as generally “last,” specifically, pertaining to being at the farthest boundary of an area, farthest, last; pertaining to being the final item in a series, least, last in time; pertaining to furthest extremity in rank, value, or situation, last: last, least, most insignificant.
