may be caused to grow
| Root | αὐξάνω (auxanō) |
| Core Meanings | to grow, to increase, to enlarge, to cause to grow |
| Semantic Range | to grow physically, to increase in number or size, to mature, to advance, to cause to flourish, to become greater in influence or strength |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, αὐξάνω often describes divine-enabled growth—whether of plants, faith, the word of God, or the community of believers—emphasizing that true increase ultimately comes from God rather than human effort. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist passive subjunctive, 3rd person singular (Gr,V,SAP3,,S,). The aorist denotes a simple or whole action; passive voice indicates the subject receives the growth; subjunctive mood expresses potential, purpose, or desired outcome. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root αὐξάνω conveys growth or increase, either occurring naturally or being caused. The aorist passive subjunctive (3rd person singular) expresses a simple, undefined action that is hoped for or intended—"may be caused to grow"—preserving both the passive voice and the subjunctive mood of possibility or purpose. |
