Eternal Life Acts 13:46 ,  48 Excerpt This phrase  eternal life  is probably one of the most difficult expressions of the Bible to render satisfactorily. Literally the meaning of “eternal” or “everlasting” refers to length of time, for example, “life that never ends.” But this can be very seriously misunderstood if people are to conclude that by becoming Christians they will never die. On the other hand, to use an expression such as “life which comes from God” or “true life” is to miss some of the significance of this quality of life which does continue not only throughout one’s earthly lifetime, but even after death. In some languages an attempt has been made to represent both the qualitative and the quantitative factors involved by translating “real life which never ends.” This may ultimately be the best solution.  More Newman, Barclay Moon, and Eugene Albert Nida.  A Handbook on the Acts of the Apostles .

Eternal Life John 3:16 Excerpt The phrase  eternal life  comes from a Hebrew phrase, literally “life in the (coming) age.” For the Hebrews “the coming age” was the age in which God would destroy the power of sin and evil in the world and set up his own rule of love and peace. In the earliest notions of this coming age, it was probably not looked upon as something that would never end; it was not “eternal” in our sense of the word. However, there is no doubt that by New Testament times “life in the age” was looked upon by many Jews as an everlasting experience. In the New Testament it definitely has this meaning, even though the main emphasis is always on the quality of life one experiences when God rules his life. That is, in the Gospel of John   eternal life  is basically qualitative, but it is also conceived of as life that never ends, because it comes from God.  More Newman, Barclay Moon, and Eugene Albert Nida.  A Handbook on the Gospe...
