Can you elaborate for those of us who don't know shit about Judaism?

You ask 3 rabbis and you'll get 4 answers. Judaism really just doesn't talk about the afterlife that much. You'll definitely find some writings and many ideas/thoughts, many of which are centered around the Messiah; however as a religion the afterlife is very much an afterthought. There is no consensus on what it looks like, and it isn't used as motivation
