Further Evidence That Time Is Not Literal In The Bible



Hebrews11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. 
In the Greek New Testament it is  
πίστει νοοῦμεν κατηρτίσθαι τοὺς αἰῶνας ῥήματι θεοῦ, εἰς τὸ μὴ ἐκ φαινομένων [a]τὸ βλεπόμενον γεγονένα  

The word translated "worlds" in modern Bibles. But directly from the Greek, it is αἰῶνας, which primarily means "ages" or long periods of time whose sum is eternity.

Hebrews11:3 By faith we understand that the ages were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

This see,ms to ,me to indicate that God's reference of time is misunderstood by many.
