Exegesis
The genitive mystēríou is modified by the perfect passive participle sesigēménou {σεσιγημένου | sesigēménou} ‘having been kept silent,’ and augmented by the dative temporal phrase chronois aiōníois {χρόνοις αἰωνίοις | khrónois aiōníois} ‘for eternal times,’ portraying a divine secret concealed throughout the ages. English word order prioritizes the commendation of divine power while preserving the layered syntax that links God’s ability to the once-hidden, now-revealed message about Christ.
In context — Romans 16:25
Now to Him who has power to establish you in line with my gospel and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, in line with the revelation of the mystery that has been kept silent for eternal times .
