Entered into Electronic Format in April 1997, by Audrey Cole.
Editor’s note (2026): This book was originally published online by Tentmaker in 1997 as a single-page HTML document. J. W. Hanson wrote in such a way that there are no precisely defined chapter distinctions. Therefore, in order to improve online readability, we have divided this book into defined chapters. In addition, all scriptural references have been updated to the latest CMOS and SBL standards, and any Roman numerals have been replaced with Arabic numerals. For example, Matt vii:6 has been updated to Matt. 7:6.
For this book, we have left the text in the original Erasmian Greek transliteration/pronunciations within. Especially for αἰών and αἰώνιος. Let the reader be aware, that there is a growing recognition that Erasmian pronunciation and transliteration isn’t actually true historic classic Greek. For a further study on this, 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.
