To whom be glory, etc. For similar doxologies see Romans 9:5; Romans 11:36; Romans 16:27; Ephesians 3:21; 1 Timothy 1:17.

Forever and ever [ε ι ς τ ο υ ς α ι ω ν α ς τ ω ν α ι ω ν ω ν]. Lit. unto the ages of the ages. See additional note on 2 Thessalonians 1:9, and comp. Romans 16:27; Philippians 4:20; 1 Timothy 1:17; 2 Timothy 4:18. Often in Revelation. In LXX habitually in the singular : see Psalms 88:29; Psalms 110:3; Psalms 110:30. In the doxology the whole period of duration is conceived as a succession of cycles.
