The meaning of Continuance in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
kon-tin'-u-ans: Not in the Revised Version (British and American); in Psalms 139:16 the King James Version, as an interpretation of Hebrew yamim, "days," treating of God's prevision, where the Revised Version (British and American) has: "They were all written, even the days that were ordained for me," i.e. all my days were in view, before one of them actually existed. In Isaiah 64:5 the King James Version, for 'olam, "of long time," the Revised Version (British and American); in Romans 2:7, for hupomone, "patience," the Revised Version (British and American), or still better, "steadlfastness," the Revised Version, margin.
