Translations: age, eternity, a long time, world, a world
From the root: ΑΙΩΝ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word, 'EIΩΝ', is a common misspelling or a form of the Koine Greek word 'ΑΙΩΝ' (aiōn), which refers to a period of time, an age, or eternity. It can also refer to the world or a specific era. In the provided context, it appears to be a misspelling of 'ΣΕΙΩΝ' (Seiōn), which is the Greek transliteration of 'Zion', a proper noun referring to a hill in Jerusalem and often used metaphorically for Jerusalem itself or God's spiritual kingdom. Given the context of 'mountain' (ὈΡΕΙ) and 'salvation' (ΣΩΤΗΡΙΑ), 'Zion' is the most fitting interpretation.
