From the root: ΩΦΕΛΕΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This word is an ancient Greek verb, often used in an optative sense to express a wish or a strong desire, similar to 'would that' or 'O that' in English. It can also mean 'to benefit,' 'to profit,' or 'to help,' indicating an action that brings advantage or assistance. In its optative use, it often introduces a clause expressing a wish that something were true or would happen. When used transitively, it takes an object that receives the benefit or help.

Inflection: Imperfect, Active, Indicative, 3rd Person Singular (as 'would that' or 'O that'); or Imperative, Active, 2nd Person Singular (as 'benefit!', 'help!'). It is also possible it is a truncated form of the infinitive 'ωφελειν' (to benefit) or a noun 'ωφελος' (benefit). Given the context, the optative sense is most likely.
