Hello Bryant: Thanks for your comments.
Please allow me to address the first verse Psalms 90:2. 1. I don't see any word in that verse that contextualizes and specifies עולם in this instance, as eternal, (as a fact versus theology). 2. I also don't see that יהוה from עולם to עולם precludes a separate conclusion of יהוה from everlasting to everlasting. Certainly no one concludes in the verse that יהוה of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, excludes יהוה of everyone else. exodus 3:15. regards, fred burlingame On Sun, Dec 12, 2010 at 6:19 PM, Bryant J.
