What’s interesting though, roof, is that here is a word that seems to be quite complicated. I’ve been studying it for a long time now and I can say this much for certain:
- It is NOT a simple word
- If you wanted simply “eternal” you chose the word “aidios” which always meant “eternal” or its equivalent
- It can mean several different things including eternal and NOT eternal.
- It Does come from the word “age” which is not eternal
- I’ve read many, many sentences from authors during the time of Christ who meant it as NOT eternal
I know there is more but it is 2:30 in the morning for me and I’m off to bed - dead tired…
