Koine and Biblical and Medieval Greek • Re: Revelation 13:15 – ποιήσῃ = make/force?

IMHO, I don't think there is need to read anything more into the word here than that a causation, that is "to cause to happen." Perhaps, & probably, to actively & proactively cause something to happen. the following came to my remembrance:

ὅστις γὰρ ἂν ποιήσῃ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ Πατρός μου τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς, αὐτός μου ἀδελφὸς καὶ ἀδελφὴ καὶ μήτηρ ἐστίν.

Matt. 12:50
