Everlasting

Here is something worth considering when we think of anything in the Scriptures that is dubbed "everlasting" or "eternal" or "forever":

The mere fact that the [Sinai] covenant was everlasting might not guarantee that it stays in force no matter what Israel does. Many things that God says will be everlasting such as the Temple, the priesthood, and the Davidic monarchy seem not to be everlasting.
- John Goldingay
