eternal, applied to God (Ge 21:33; De 33:27; Ps 41:13; 90:2). We also read of the "everlasting hills" (Ge 49:26); an "everlasting priesthood" (Ex 40:15; Nu 25:13). (See Eternal life.)

The blessings of thy father, have prevailed, Over the blessings of the perpetual mountains, The charm of the age-abiding hills, - They turn out to be, for the head of Joseph, And for the crown of the head of him who was set apart from his brethren.
and shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister as priests unto me, - so shall their anointing remain to them for an age-abiding priesthood, to their generations.
so shall it prove to be unto him and unto his seed after him, the covenant of our age-abiding priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and did put a propitiatory-covering over the sons of Israel.
Above, is the God of aforetime, And, beneath, are the Arms of the ages, - So he driveth before thee the foe, And doth say - Destroy!
Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, From the age that is past, even unto the age yet to come: Amen and Amen!
