[Editor’s note (2026): All scriptural references have been modernized according to CMOS/SBL standards, Roman numerals have been updated to Arabic numbering. Where paragraphs were exceptionally long, these have been broken up for easier online reading. Greek transliterations have been updated throughout from Erasmian to Neo-Hellenic Koine. See our article titled Erasmus Never Used Erasmian Greek for further explanation. As reference, the two key Greek words αἰών and αἰώνιος are transliterated as — Erasmian: aion/aionios; Neo-Hellenic Koine: eón/eónios.]
