1. Such beings as had a beginning and shall have an end. Such as all animate creatures the animals, birds, fish which at death are destroyed and return to dust. Their being ends with their life.
2. Such beings as had a beginning but shall have no end. Such as angels and the souls of men, which are eternal once they are brought into existence they abide forever.
3. Such as is without beginning and without ending. This is proper only to God. He is from everlasting to everlasting. This is God's title, a jewel of his crown. He is called "the King eternal." Jehovah is a word that properly sets forth God's eternity. It is a word so dreadful, that the Jews trembled to name or read it; and used Adonai, 'Lord,' in its place. Jehovah contains in it time past, present, and to come. "I am the Alpha and the Omega says the Lord God who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." Revelation 1:8. This verse illustrates the word Jehovah; (who is) he subsists of himself, having a pure and independent being; (who was) God alone, was before time; there is no searching into the records of eternity; (who is to come).
[Thomas Watson]
Psalm 45:6 ... Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
