About ἐνδυναμόω (endynamóō)
Endynamoō is a compound built from "in" and the root behind our word "dynamite" — to empower from within. In Philippians 4:13, Paul doesn't say he can do all things through his own resolve; the verb is passive, "through Christ which strengtheneth me" — the power is supplied, not self-generated. The same word appears in Paul's charge to Timothy: "be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus" (2 Timothy 2:1).
