What he described took place in heaven.
Rev 8:1
When the Lamb broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
I don't think we can understand time and dimensional space with certainty until we have passed on.
All our ideas are speculation. I don't believe eternity is quantified as endless time either. But I don't KNOW with certainty. The physics of heaven & the comining new heaven & earth may quite different to the reality we experience now.
It's an interseting discussion point but I don't think it's an area were we should be dogmatic.
All I'm doing here is highlighting one piece of scriptural evidence. Above, ewq has mentioned another. Rev 22:2,
where The Tree of Life is seen yielding fruit every month. These are time-references. Very few of us have seen into eternity
or heaven. John gave us the report of an eye witness. We must take it seriously. We may have to adjust our ideas about
time. There is nothing wrong with that.

Have it your way...the wrong way...there is no time in the spiritual world. Eternity is no time frame as we know time keeping on earth. Earth is always understood as a time frame...but not God and His spiritual world.
Example...God has always existed. He always will.
Get it?.....No time.
