Time in the Old Testament

Judaism does not exist in the idea of eternity of ancient greek philosophy. time is created after the universe in the ancient philosophy. the main idea of the old testament appears at the moment of time after the creation of the universe. time is within the universe, not vice versa. time consists of forms in judaism; like genesis [6 days of creation], seventh day, and circle of stars. sabbath and holy days are significant periods of time for the jews who want to escape from the restriction of time to achieve spiritual purification necessary for eternal life. future priorities and recency in the context of the tradition of ancient israel is not a priority, given the past. old jewish tradition favors the past over the present. in the context of finite-infinity relations finite is a quality of the universe whereas infinity is peculiarly divine. apocalypse is an essential term of the old testament. the term refers to the finite aspect of the universe.
