Do you disagree with Strongs explanation of the word aionios?

166 aiwniov aionios ahee-o’-nee-os

from 165; TDNT-1:208,31; adj

AV-eternal 42, everlasting 25, the world began + 5550 2, since the world began + 5550 1, for ever 1; 71

1) without beginning and end, that which always has been and always will be
2) without beginning
3) without end, never to cease, everlasting

Matthew 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting <166> punishment:
but the righteous into life eternal <166>.

The life and death are both described as "eternal" <166> by translators
yet you say this is incorrect so then we did not inherit eternal life
but something temporal?

Here is another translation by Weymouth

Matthew 25:46 "And these shall go away into the Punishment of the Ages,
but the righteous into the Life of the Ages."

We must be consistent about the meaning of the word
especially within the same sentence!!
