Exegesis
The adversative kai oudeis edynato mathein {καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐδύνατο μαθεῖν | kaí ou-deís e-dý-na-to ma-theîn} uses the imperfect to express ongoing inability, with the infinitive specifying the act.
In context — Revelation 14:3
And they are singing as a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and before the elders; and no one was able to learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth.
