ἸΣΧΥΣΔΙΑ, ἰσχυσδια

ISCHYSDIA, ischysdia

Sounds Like: IS-khoos-DEE-ah

Translations: strength through, power through, might through, ability through

From the root: ἸΣΧΥΣ, ΔΙΑ

Part of Speech: Noun, Preposition

Explanation: This appears to be a compound or conjoined form of two distinct Koine Greek words: 'ἸΣΧΥΣ' (ischys), meaning 'strength' or 'power', and 'ΔΙΑ' (dia), a preposition meaning 'through', 'by means of', or 'on account of'. The combination 'ἸΣΧΥΣΔΙΑ' is not a standard single word in Koine Greek. It is most likely a textual error, a unique compound formed for a specific context, or a very rare or archaic form. If it were intended as a phrase, it would mean 'strength through' or 'power by means of'.

Inflection: ἸΣΧΥΣ: Nominative, Singular, Feminine; ΔΙΑ: Does not inflect (preposition)

Strong’s numbers: G2479 (Lookup on BibleHub), G1223 (Lookup on BibleHub)

Unknown: Yes
