| G2309 | θέλω | thélō | apparently strengthened from the alternate form of G138 | to determine (as an active option from subjective impulse; whereas G1014 properly denotes rather a passive acquiescence in objective considerations), i.e. choose or prefer (literally or figuratively); by implication, to wish, i.e. be inclined to (sometimes adverbially, gladly); impersonally for the future tense, to be about to; by Hebraism, to delight in | desire, be disposed (forward), intend, list, love, mean, please, have rather, (be) will (have, -ling, - ling(-ly)) |
Sources. The definition, derivation and KJV renderings are James Strong's own wording from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (1890) — public domain. The numbered senses and the Hebrew–Greek cross-references are the editorial work of the OpenScriptures Strong's dictionary, licensed CC BY-SA 3.0; their sense-outline conventions match the Outline of Biblical Usage (Online Bible, Larry Pierce), noted as a convention match rather than a documented claim.
