What it means
A plain-English reading of the word, with the lexicons it draws on — Abbott-Smith, Strong's, and Liddell-Scott-Jones — right below it, in full.
AI Summary
δύναμαι means to be able — to have the power, capacity, or opportunity to do something, whether that ability comes from one's own strength or skill, from being permitted, or simply from the circumstances allowing it 14. It usually takes an infinitive, "to be able to do such-and-such," but can also stand without one, simply meaning to be capable, powerful, or strong 13. The same idea can be expressed impersonally, as "it is possible," "may," or "might" 23.
