The Apocalypse of Baruch describes the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple by the Babylonians and the subsequent exile of the Jewish people. It also contains prophecies about the end of the world and the coming of the Messiah. The Greek Apocalypse of Baruch is an important work for scholars of early Jewish and Christian literature, as well as for those interested in apocalypticism and eschatology.
