Footnotes
ἐκ τoῦ αἰώνος (ek tou aiōnos) = “from the age/since the age began” — encompassing all of recorded history. No such miracle appears in the Hebrew scriptures. F.O.G. retains “age” to preserve the eschatological flavour (αἰών often carries end-times weight in Jewish thought, implying this is an act belonging to the age of Messiah); F.O.G. Message renders it “world began” for natural English idiom.
