The main thrust of this paper is to find out the eschatological allusions seen in the prayers, hymns and rubrics of the different sections of the East Syrian Qurbana. In the liturgy of the Word, we can see many prayers and hymns with clear eschatological reflections on heaven, death, resurrection, purgatory (Beth Purkana), parousia and final judgment. The anaphoral part of the Qurbana carries eschatological views especially in its G’hanthas, Sanctus and Epiclesis. The Liturgy of the Holy Communion presents the ultimate eschatological fulfillment of the faithful and the Church in terms of the Eucharistic Communion.
