Peter:

So from your description here, do you mean that "forever" and "eternity" actually mean for an unknown length of time? That's what it sounds like here.


No, I do not mean this. How many times do I have to repeat this? I mean that the period is "for ever" in that there is no beginning or end to it. Of course death brings an end to slavery, but it is does not bring freedom (in the OT perspective) so it does not count as an end.
