What is…
the end repeatedly referred to in the Bible

In Hebrews 13:7, is the rendering of the unusual Greek word ekbasin, meaning “outcome”, i.e., death.

It occurs elsewhere only in 1 Corinthians 10:13, where it is rendered “escape.”

End of heavens and Earth

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. —Matthew 24:35, repeated in Luke 21:33 and Mark 13:31

…the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat… all these things are to be destroyed in this way… the heavens burning will be destroyed, and the elements will melt with intense heat! …according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. —2 Peter 3:10-13 excerpts

The end of this universe will occur at the end of The Millennium.
