In the bible, sometimes until means until, sometimes until means until and after. Sometimes the meaning is clear, sometimes not so much. That is where interpretation comes in, and mine is just as valid as anyone else’s. The article shows 2 clear examples of it meaning until and after, and there are more, so in the language of the time it is not that unusual.

Mary’s perpetual virginity is a dogma of my faith, not yours, (I’m assuming you are not Catholic) so its relevance to our salvation is not the same.

Love,
O2

And here I thought that personal interpretation of Scripture is not allowed by the Roman Catholic church, for it make everyone their own pope, or at least what we non-Catholics have been told over and over (and over) again by Roman Catholics on this forum.

So how would it affect the salvation of Catholics who do not believe in Mary's perpetual virginity?

And sometimes the word isn't even in the verse...And yet you still try to use it...The word is 'unto', not until...
