ETERNAL LIFE, PART I: AN END TO DEATH
Death will be swallowed up forever, and G-d the Lord will wipe away the tears from every face. (Yeshayah 25:8)
When man was originally created, he was meant to live forever. Death only came to the world as a result of the sin of the Tree of Knowledge. As a result of this sin, some negative elements were imparted to Man. Were he to live forever, these negative forces would endure, as well, and so, death was necessary. When Moshiach comes, however, G-d will “remove the spirit of impurity from the earth” (Zecharya 13:2). As a result, there will be no need for death, and thus, man will live forever, as was originally intended.
