  EVERLASTING, adj.  Lasting forever.  It is with no small diffidence
  that I venture to offer this brief and elementary definition, for I am
  not unaware of the existence of a bulky volume by a sometime Bishop of
  Worcester, entitled, _A Partial Definition of the Word "Everlasting,"
  as Used in the Authorized Version of the Holy Scriptures_.  His book
  was once esteemed of great authority in the Anglican Church, and is
  still, I understand, studied with pleasure to the mind and profit of
  the soul.
  
  

  Everlasting
     eternal, applied to God (Gen. 21:33; Deut. 33:27; Ps. 41:13;

     "everlasting priesthood" (Ex. 40:15; Num. 25:13). (See ETERNAL.)
