With God, all things are possible

Ohio's seal and motto are displayed at the foot of the steps leading to the Ohio Statehouse's west entrance.[1] This installation was the subject of a 1997 federal lawsuit that was decided in favor of the state.[2]

With God, all things are possible is the motto of the U.S. state of Ohio.[2] Quoted from the Gospel of Matthew, verse 19:26, it is the only state motto taken directly from the Bible (Greek: παρὰ δὲ θεῷ πάντα δυνατά, para de Theō panta dynata).[2][3] It is defined in section 5.06 of the Ohio Revised Code[4] and sometimes appears beneath the Seal of Ohio. The motto was adopted in 1959 and survived a federal constitutional challenge in 2001.[2] The state maintains that it is a generic expression of optimism rather than an endorsement of a particular religion.[2]
