It's my understanding that "olam" is the Hebrew equivalent to the Greek "aion" (both meaning "age").
Does anybody know what the Hebrew equivalent to the Greek "aionios" is?
I believe it?s ?olamim,? which can be translated as worlds, ages, eternal.
Olam is a duration when used as a noun.
A source when used as an adjective.

Theres many more instances in the Greek Old Testament (the Septuagint or LXX ) where 'aionios' cannot mean 'eternal' in a metaphysical sense.Please research how 'aionios' is used in the Septuagint and how its consistently used to transliterate 'olam'. Its essential to understand what 'olam' meant in ancient Hebrew thinking.
