~World Without End~


"...ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end." Isaiah 45:17
"...unto Him be glory...by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."Ephesians 3:21

Twice in the KJV, the phrase "world without end" appears. In Ephesians, it is the Greek word αἰών repeated twice, the double use of this word occurs 21 other times in the New Testament, mainly translated as "ever and ever". (Usually used with the preposition for and in reference to God's glory.)

Our English word "eon" or properly "aeon" comes from a direct transliteration of Greek word, and is translated "age".

[English Context Help:]
(As used in context: "I waited ages and ages" ; not used in context "What age are you?")



"Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen."
