It should be pointed out this is John Calvin's argument for the reason that Mary remained a perpetual virgin. Although the word "until" (or "til" take your pick) is used, Rev Calvin states this does not necessarily mean that Mary HAD sex afterwards. Personally I think this strain credibility for the conjunction "until" (or "til") is a transitional statement.
Also in regards to eos the definition is to continue up to a particular time. The word is also used in such places as until a thousand years are finished (Rev 20:5). Clearly something is going to happen after that.
I disagree with Calvin's interpretation nor do I find anything convincing me otherwise in your analysis. You would have to explain this transitional statement in conjunction with the "brothers" statement by Jesus in Matt (and I believe Luke), Paul's statement of the Lord's brothers in 1 Cor 9:5 and the beginning of the book of James.
As to the "brothers", Jesus Himself loved calling people brothers

Matt 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Oops, wrong one. ;O)
As I stated in the above post to Forest Keeper, this isnt mariophobic. Its an attempt by the Roman Catholic Church to base a skewed doctrine on something that really isnt there. The Mary/Eve comparison is a good case. Now if you want to say Mary was duped by the angel then that's a different issue-something I'd disagree with.
BTW-Let me know when the correct the Latin Vulgate or even the Doury-Rheims versions.
Mary and Eve are symmetrical. Eve uses her senses to taste the fruit, -- the scientific method,-- and follows Satan. Mary uses logic and word of God, -- theological method, -- and follows God. Naturally, Eve is deceived and Mary is enlightened.
