<p> ( ἡ ἐσχάτη ἡμέρα , <i> '''''hē eschátē hēméra''''' </i> ): Repeatedly used by [[Jesus]] in Jn ( John 6:39 , John 6:40 , John 6:44 , John 6:54; John 11:24; John 12:48 ) for the day of resurrection and judgment (see [[Eschatology Of The New Testament]] ). Compare the usage in the Old [[Testament]] ( Isaiah 2:2; Micah 4:1 ) and the New Testament ( Acts 2:17; 2 Timothy 3:1; 2 Peter 3:3; 1 John 2:18; Judges 1:18 ) of "last days" and "last time" to denote the Messianic age. See [[Latter Days]]; [[Last Days]]; [[Last Time]] . </p> <p> In John 7:37 , "the last day, the great day of the feast" refers to the eighth day of the feast of Tabernacles. This closing day was observed as a [[Sabbath]] ( Leviticus 23:36 ). On it the libation of water made on other days was not made; hence, the allusion of Jesus to Himself as the Giver of the living water. </p>
