Why pick on the ESV?
Here's the KJV:
Luke 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
1 Cor 15:24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
Nearly all translations read that way.

lol, it's one of those moments where if someone really doesn't agree with how one of the Bible translations translated something then they should speak with their preacher and find out which translation translated it to fit more in line with how their Church teaches. Come on folks this is 2023 don't we all have Bible translations that we translated to so they said things the same as we believe?

When your favorite Bible contradicts itself, maybe it's time to look elsewhere.
Here is Luke 1:33 when properly translated by Young's Literal Translation:
"and he shall reign over the house of Jacob to the ages; and of his reign there shall be no end.' "
You see, now there is no contradiction between Luke 1:33 and 1 Corinthians 15:24. You're welcome.

By the way, I love the ESV for its ease of reading. However, when it speaks of things like "eternal" and "everlasting", I look to the YLT or the Concordant. Most Christians have the mistaken belief that translations such as the KJV, NIV, ESV, etc., are perfectly translated and it's obvious that's not true.

Look at Verse 25:
25 For He must reign "until" He has put all His enemies under His feet.
This is a process that must take place before He is Crowned.
Verse 24 is not the actual end, but the beginning of the next fulfillment of God's Plan.
You're creating a Doctrine out of 2 Verses and ignoring the fact, they actually CONFIRM one another.
