Exegesis
The infinitive kleronomesai {κληρονομῆσαι | klē-ro-no-mê-sai} “to inherit” depends on dynatai {δύναται | dý-na-tai} “is able,” negated by ou {οὐ | ou}, expressing absolute incapacity regarding basileian theou {βασιλείαν θεοῦ | ba-si-leí-an the-oû} “kingdom of God.”
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:50
I now affirm this, brothers: mortal flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God , nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
