God is Eternal and Infinite

There are many words in Hebrew that do not have an exact English equivalent. Some Hebrew words can mean many different things in English. For example, the word ___עוֹלָם___ (pronounced: nitzchiyut(?)) introduced in this chapter means both endless time (eternity) and endless space (universe). It can also mean world.
