a. followed by an infinitive (Winers Grammar, § 44, 3) present or aorist (on the distinction between which, cf. Winer's Grammar, § 44, 7). α. followed by a present infinitive: Matthew 6:24; Matthew 9:15; Mark 2:7; Mark 3:23; Luke 6:39; John 3:2; John 5:19; Acts 27:15; 1 Corinthians 10:21; Hebrews 5:7; 1 John 3:9; Revelation 9:20, and often. β. followed by an aorist infinitive: Matthew 3:9; Matthew 5:14; Mark 1:45; Mark 2:4; Mark 5:3; Luke 8:19; Luke 13:11; John 3:3; John 6:52; John 7:34, 36; Acts 4:16 (R G); ; Romans 8:39; Romans 16:25; 1 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Corinthians 3:1; 1 Corinthians 6:5; 2 Corinthians 3:7; Galatians 3:21; Ephesians 3:4, 20; 1 Thessalonians 3:9; 1 Timothy 6:7, 16; 2 Timothy 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:7, 15; Hebrews 2:18; Hebrews 3:19; ( Lachmann); James 1:21; Revelation 3:8; Revelation 5:3; Revelation 6:17, and very often.

c. joined with an accusative, δύναμαι τί, to be able to do something (cf. German ich vermag etwas): Mark 9:22; Luke 12:26; 2 Corinthians 13:8 (and in Greek writings from Homer on).

d. absolutely, like the Latinpossum (as in Cues. b. gall. 1, 18, 6), equivalent to to be able, capable, strong, powerful: 1 Corinthians 3:2; 1 Corinthians 10:13. (2 Chronicles 32:13; 1 Macc. 5:40f; in 2 Macc. 11:13 manuscript Alex., and often in Greek writings as Euripides, Or. 889; Thucydides 4, 105; Xenophon, an. 4, 5, 11f; Isocrates, Demosthenes, Aeschines)

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

The following exx. of this common verb may be cited—P Par 47.10 (c. B.C. 153) (= Selections, p. 22) ἐνβέβληκαν (sc. οἱ θεοὶ) ὑμᾶς εἰς ὕλην μεγάλην καὶ οὗ δυνάμεθα ἀποθανεῖν, ";they have cast us into a great forest, where we may possibly die,"; P Oxy IV. 743.36 (B.C. 2) οὐκ ἠδυνάσθην συντυχεῖν ᾽Α ";I was unable to meet A.,"; ib. 744.12 (B.C. 1) (= Selections, p. 33) πῶς δύναμαί σε ἐπιλαθεῖν; ";how can I forget you?";, P Lond 144.11 (? i/A.D.) (= II. p. 253) ἵνα δυνηθῇ τὸ παιδάριόν μου ἐλθεῖν πρό [ς μ ]ε, P Oxy III. 472.16 (c. A.D. 130) οὐ δύναται γὰρ κεκλέφθαι τὸ μηδ᾽ ἀρχὴν γενόμενον μὴ δυνατὸν δ᾽ εἶναι, ";for it is impossible for that to have been stolen which neither ever existed at all nor could exist"; (Edd.). It takes an acc. rei (as in Luke 12:26) in P Ryl II. 77.38 (A.D. 192) οὐ γὰρ δύναμαι κοσμητείαν. In P Leid Uiv. 10 (ii/B.C.) ἔφη δύνασθαι τὰ ἔργα πάντα ἐπιτελέσιν ἐν ηλι (?—was ὀλίγαις meant?) ἡμέραι (l. —αις) we have δ. construed with the fut. inf. as a substitute for the aor. For the form δύνομαι, which is read by B* in Matthew 19:12; Matthew 26:53 etc., cf. BGU II. 388ii. 8 (ii/iii A.D.) ἐγώ, ἃ δύνομαι ἐνθάδε εὑρίσκειν, ζητῶ, ib. I. 159.5 (A.D. 216) ἀπε ̣στ ̣[η ]ν ̣ τῆς κώμης οὐ δυνόμενος ὑποστῆναι τὸ βάρος τῆς λειτουργίας, P Cattiii. 22 (ii/B.C.) (= Chrest. II. p. 421) : (see further Deissmann BS, p. 193). In P Par 45.3 (B.C. 153) we have ἅ σ᾽ οὐ δεδύνησμαι διασαφῆσαι διὰ τοῦ ἐπιστολίου, and in P Oxy VI. 939.15 (iv/A.D.) εἴ πως ἐκ παντὸς τρόπου δυνηθείης [πρὸς ἡμᾶς ] ἀφικέσθαι. According to Meisterhans Gr. p. 169, δύναμαι first begins to augment with η in the Attic inscrr. after B.C. 300. It occurs in some of the earliest papyri, as P Hib I. 27.34 (iii/B.C. init.), 34.19 (B.C. 243–2). The future δυνηθήσομαι is found in P Lond 897.13 (A.D. 84) (= III. p. 207), and the aorist ἠδυνάσθην in P Petr III. 42 C (14).4 (B.C. 255) : see Mayser Gr. p. 393 for other forms. MGr has δύνομαι.
