What is the syntactical function of the infinitive FULAXAI in 2 Tim 1.12?
I'm translating it as the complement to the copula--"he is able (DUNATOS
ESTIN) to keep . . ." Is that (complementary infinitive) the proper
terminology for what I'm seeing?

Q. How many Talmudic Scholars does it take
to change a light bulb?
A. R. Abiva heard from R. Millerstein, who heard from Rab
Josy, who got it from R. David, who got it from Moses,
that it would take three.
Whereupon, R. Marshmallow said that Moses said
'three' but meant 'two' since "light" has three radicals,
but the vaw in the middle separates the light from the
dark.
