Exegesis
The final kai iasomai autous {καὶ ἰάσομαι αὐτούς | kai iásomai autoús} ‘and I will heal them’ shifts to first person singular future middle indicative, marking a climactic divine response contingent on the unrealized sequence of seeing, understanding, and turning. In translation, the asyndetic chain of subjunctives is rendered with coordinated verbs in English to preserve the rhetorical progression (see–understand–turn–heal), while maintaining the hina construction as “so that” plus modal auxiliaries (“would,” “could”) to convey the volitional nuance of the subjunctive.
Root and etymology
iaomaiiota–alpha–omicron–mu–alpha–iota
“to heal, restore to wholeness”
In context — John 12:40
He has blinded their eyes and He has hardened their heart , so that they would not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.
