Justifikasi Perkataan The Kingdom of

God
The word Kingdom of God is not found in the
Tanakh but is derived from statements in the
Wiritings and Prophets, for example:
And the Lord shall be King over all the earth
and in that day there shall be one Lord with
one name.
(Zech. 14:9)

Kingdom of God
The Kingdom of God or Reign of God (Greek:
- Basileia tou Theou
translates to the "reign of the God) is a
foundational concept in the three Abrahamic
religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

JUDAISM
The Kingdom of God is referred to frequently
in the Tanakh (see 1 Chronicles 1 Chronicles
29:10-12 and Daniel 4:3 for example). It is tied
to Jewish understanding that God will restore
the nation of Israel to the land. The Kingdom
of God was expressly promised to King David,
because he was a man "after God's own
heart" (1 Samuel 13:14).

Kaitan dengan pembebasan orang Israel
Usaha membentuk semula pusat ibadat
As long as Israel is united into one league (that is
making bold front against any heresy, denying the
unity or the supremacy of God), the kingdom in
heaven is maintained by them;whilst Israel falling
off from God shakes the throne to its very
foundation in heaven (R. Simon)
