AI Summary
φαίνω means, in its active sense, to shine or give light 124 — used of light itself appearing or shining out, as of a lamp or star 1.
In its passive sense it means to appear, come to light, be seen, or seem 1234. It covers something becoming visible or manifest 13, as well as something appearing to be a certain way to the mind or judgment, i.e. seeming so, sometimes close in force to "it seems" or "it seems good" 123.
