Exegesis
The next segment, kai hotan thelēte dynasthe autois eu poiēsai {καὶ ὅταν θέλητε δύνασθε αὐτοῖς εὖ ποιῆσαι | kaí hó-tan thé-lē-te dý-na-sthe au-toîs eu poi-ê-sai}, introduces an indefinite temporal clause with hotan plus the present subjunctive thelēte, indicating any time or whenever the disciples choose. The main verb within this clause, dynasthe, remains in the indicative, stressing real capability and not mere potential, while autois eu poiēsai combines the dative pronoun with the adverb and infinitive to mean ‘to do good to them’ as a concrete, beneficent action.
