ε3136Ἔσθενε
had strength, was strong
[Meaning he/she/it] was enjoying strength and power, was able. Aelian [writes]: "the cock was singing of his savior, with whatever strength he had in his voice, and was asking to make him sound of foot."
Ἔσθενε· σθένους καὶ δυνάμεως μετεῖχεν, ἠδύνατο. Αἰλιανός· ὁ δὲ ἀλέκτωρ ὕμνει τὸν σωτῆρα, ᾗπερ οὖν ἔσθενε φωνῇ, καὶ ἐδεῖτο ἀρτίπουν θεῖναι αὐτόν.
