This isn't an "interpretation", this is straight facts about the word aeonian. Besides, I don't want you to "believe" me, I want you to learn some facts and then perhaps you might agree with me.
The problem with your claims is everything I've seen says the word can be used with multiple meanings. The meaning is dependent on context. Plato and Aristotle used the word with different meanings. The group of scholars that wrote the NIV Bible interpreted the word with different meanings. Merriam-Webster agrees with them that it has multiple meanings. You claim they are all wrong. I'm still waiting on you to back up your claims, and show me why you are right and they are wrong. Go ahead, be context specific if you can...
Now I find it humurous that you can't even decide which "literal" interpretation to use....
