"Life of the age" would have to be written ZWH TOU AIWNOS. I
don't think that that appears in the NT. I did not check.

The phrase "life of the coming age" is found in Rabbi Hillel's writings,
"HeYeY HaOLaM HaBa" [20 B.C.]  OLam is translated AIWN in the LXX.

Also there are two places in the NT where you do have a first declension
form of the adjective in the accusative, 2 Th. 2:16 PARAKLHSIN AIWNIAN and
Heb. 9:12 AIWNIAN LUTRWSIN.
