Pos"si*ble (?), a. [F., fr. L. possibilis, fr. posse to be
able, to have power; potis able, capable + esse to be. See Potent, Am, and cf. Host a landlord.]
Capable of existing or occurring, or of being conceived or thought of; able to happen; capable of being done; not contrary to the nature of
things; -- sometimes used to
express extreme improbability; barely
able to be,
or to come to pass; as, possibly he is honest, as
it is possible that Judas meant no wrong.
With God all things are possible.
