I'm interested that 'eternity' is said to be the 'traditional' interpretation. That's the LXX's position, certainly (αἰῶνα), but the Vulgate (mundum) and Rashi (and I see the JPS translation) all go for 'world' which indeed gives much more satisfactory parallelism (את הכל עשה || את העלם נתן). Just a observation.
