Markus 10:30

10:30 who will not receive in this age ¹  a hundred times as much – homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, fields, all with persecutions ²  – and in the age to come, eternal life. ³ 

Lukas 20:34-35

20:34 So ⁴  Jesus said to them, “The people of this age ⁵  marry and are given in marriage. 20:35 But those who are regarded as worthy to share in ⁶  that age and in the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. ⁷ 

Efesus 1:21

1:21 far above every rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

Ibrani 6:5

6:5 tasted the good word of God and the miracles of the coming age,

¹ tn Grk “this time” (καιρός, kairos), but for stylistic reasons this has been translated “this age” here.

² tn Grk “with persecutions.” The “all” has been supplied to clarify that the prepositional phrase belongs not just to the “fields.”

³ sn Note that Mark (see also Matt 19:29; Luke 10:25, 18:30) portrays eternal life as something one receives in the age to come, unlike John, who emphasizes the possibility of receiving eternal life in the present (John 5:24).

⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that Jesus’ response is a result of their framing of the question.

⁵ tn Grk “sons of this age” (an idiom, see L&N 11.16). The following clause which refers to being “given in marriage” suggests both men and women are included in this phrase.

⁶ tn Grk “to attain to.”

⁷ sn Life in the age to come is different than life here (they neither marry nor are given in marriage). This means Jesus’ questioners had made a false assumption that life was the same both now and in the age to come.
