I don't believe the spirit dies either. But metaphysical refers to "beyond the physical." When the body dies we go unconscious (my belief). But the manner in which someone is dead in sin while physically alive is metaphysical death because it is not referring to the physical. That's just what I call it. I think all the definitions of aionios life are speaking about life from the dead in terms of loving our brothers and being free from sin. I personally don't go for "literal death" vs "figurative death." I refer to it as "physical death" vs "metaphysical death." That's just my own approach to the dual understanding of death taught in scripture.

I say toe MAY toe, and you say toe MAH toe.

OK, lets call it on as long as there's no quibbling.

Tom

It's been interesting, bro, but I think I'm out of here for the night.
