CHAPTER XXI.
Flan of the Aions (Ages).
The following diagram is intended to illustrate the chro-
nological arrangement of the dispensations and some of
the principal events of Bible History.
The division of time into days, months and years, is
fixed by the movements of the earth and moon. The term
century is not used in the Scriptures, but the next greater
measure of time above the year (Sabbatic year and Jubilee
year) is the Greek term AION or English EON, from which
comes our word age. This word is used 124 times in the
New Testament and is translated by eight different English
words, viz: "WORLD" 35 times.
