Can anybody state all the major prophecies in Jewish scriptures ? [Spirituality & Religion]

Are there any Jewish people who know the prophecies in their religious scriptures, I tried looking on internet, can't find any that are purely from bible or Torah. All about the 3rd temple, The awaited Messiah, and war etc.
Thanks

I'm sure there are people around here who could give you a better answer than I, but since no one else seems interested in responding, I'll answer anyway.

The Torah has nothing like that whatsoever. That stuff is all confined to the latter half of the Nevi'im, and there is much less of it in there than you might think. "Apocalyptic" trends really only developed near the very end of the period of composition of so-called "Old Testament" literature, and Daniel is the only book which is explicitly apocalyptic in character. There are scattered prophecies in a few earlier books in the Nevi'im (Isaiah, Ezekiel, Zechariah, and Jeremiah mainly) that eventually also served as bedrock for eschatological speculation by later Jewish exegetes, though.

Everything in the TaNaKh was composed long before the Second Temple was actually destroyed, so there is nothing in there about a Third Temple.

@Daniel031 Oh no, there is stuff like that. I was just telling you what parts of the Bible you should read if you want to find that content.

@Keraunos Oh now I get it. Right, This clears up a bit. These two always confuse me with new versions and rewriting. Thanks a lot, now I know which books exactly to look for.
@Keraunos The last books of the Tanach were written in the days of rebuilding of the second temple , Ezra and Nechemia , which was about 400 years before it's destruction.
