Unto The Ages Of Ages
The phrase "unto the ages of ages" expresses either the idea of eternity, or an indeterminate number of aeons. The phrase is a translation of the original Koine Greek phrase "" (''eis toùs aionas ton aiṓnōn''), which occurs in the original Greek texts of the Christian New Testament (e.g. in Phillippians 4:20).
