It is also possible to treat the phrase ε ἰ ς ἐ πίγνωσιν ἔ ρχομαι as meaning ‘ to come to know ’ in the sense of ‘ to come to understand ’.

8 SLB 2006SLB-0518 Think 27.5 ὁ ράωf; συνοράωa: to acquire information, with focus upon the event of perception —‘ to learn about, to find out about. ’ ὁ ράωf: ἐ ραύνησον κα ὶ ἴ δε ὅ τι ἐ κ τ ῆ ς Γαλιλαίας προφήτης ο ὐ κ ἐ γείρεται ‘ search and learn that from Galilee no prophet ever arises ’ Jn 7.52. συνοράωa : συνιδόντες κατέφυγον ε ἰ ς τ ὰ ς πόλεις τ ῆ ς Λυκαονίας ‘ when they learned about it, they fled to cities in Lycaonia ’ Ac 14.6.

11 SLB 2006SLB-05111 Think 27.8 ἐ πιγινώσκωc: to acquire information, probably in a somewhat more exact or detailed form and perhaps with focus upon what is learned (compare 27.2) —‘ to learn about, to find out about. ’ ἐ πιγνο ῦ σα ὅ τι κατάκειται ἐ ν τ ῇ ο ἰ κί ᾳ το ῦ Φαρισαίου ‘ she found out that he was eating in the Pharisee ’ s house ’ Lk 7.37; ἐ πέγνωμεν ὅ τι Μελίτη ἡ ν ῆ σος καλε ῖ ται ‘ then we learned that the island was called Malta ’ Ac 28.1.

12 SLB 2006SLB-05112 Think ἐ πιγινώσκωc also occurs in legal contexts referring to careful investigation and interrogation: ε ἴ πας μάστιξιν ἀ νετάζεσθαι α ὐ τ ὸ ν ἵ να ἐ πιγν ῷ δ ἰ ἣ ν α ἰ τίαν ο ὕ τως ἐ πεφώνουν α ὐ τ ῷ ‘ he told them to whip him to ascertain why they (the Jews) were screaming like this against him ’ Ac 22.24; βουλόμενός τε ἐ πιγν ῶ ναι τ ὴ ν α ἰ τίαν δ ἰ ἣ ν ἐ νεκάλουν α ὐ τ ῷ κατήγαγον ε ἰ ς τ ὸ συνέδριον α ὐ τ ῶ ν ‘ I wanted to find out what they were accusing him of, so I took him down to their Council ’ Ac 23.28.4

15 SLB 2006SLB-05115 Think 31.8 πλανάω; πλάνηa, ης f: (figurative extensions of meaning of πλανάω ‘ to cause to wander off the path, ’ not occurring in the NT) to cause someone to hold a wrong view and thus be mistaken —‘ to mislead, to deceive, deception, to cause to be mistaken. ’ 2 πλανάω: βλέπετε μή τις ὑ μ ᾶ ς πλανήσ ῃ ‘ watch out, and do not let anyone deceive you ’ Mt 24.4; πλαν ῶ ντες κα ὶ πλανώμενοι ‘ deceiving others and being deceived themselves ’ 2 Tm 3.13.

16 SLB 2006SLB-05116 Think πλάνηa : ἐ κ τούτου γινώσκομεν τ ὸ πνε ῦ μα τ ῆ ς ἀ ληθείας κα ὶ τ ὸ πνε ῦ μα τ ῆ ς πλάνης ‘ this is the way we know the difference between the Spirit which leads to truth and the spirit that misleads us ’ or ‘ … causes us to hold a wrong view ’ or ‘ … causes us to be mistaken ’ 1 Jn 4.6. To mislead people as to proper views which they should have may often be expressed idiomatically, for example, ‘ to twist people ’ s thoughts, ’ ‘ to cause what is false to seem like what is true, ’ ‘ to make a lie appear true, ’ ‘ to dig away the truth, ’ or ‘ to cover the eyes with lies. ’

17 SLB 2006SLB-05117 Think 31.33 ἐ κζήτησις, εως f: to form ideas which are unrelated to reality, normally with a negative connotation —‘ speculation, worthless speculation, imaginings. ’ α ἵ τινες ἐ κζητήσεις παρέχουσιν ‘ these promote worthless speculations ’ 1 Tm 1.4.
