Original Word: οおみくろんἶδでるたαあるふぁ
Part of Speech: Verb
Transliteration: eidó
Phonetic Spelling: (i'-do)
Definition: be aware, behold, consider, perceive
Usage: I know, remember, appreciate.

1492 eídō (oida) – properly, to see with physical eyes (cf. Ro 1:11), as it naturally bridges to the metaphorical sense: perceiving ("mentally seeing"). This is akin to the expressions: "I see what You mean"; "I see what you are saying."

1492 /eídō ("seeing that becomes knowing") then is a gateway to grasp spiritual truth (reality) from a physical plane. 1492 (eídō) then is physical seeing (sight) which should be the constant bridge to mental and spiritual seeing (comprehension).

εいぷしろんἰδでるたῶ, ἴδでるたωおめが, Latinvideo (Sanskritvid, perfectveda know,vind-a-mi find, (cf. Vedas); Curtius, § 282), an obsolete form of the present tense, the place of which is supplied by ὁράω.

1. to perceive (with the eyes; Latinconspicere, German erblicken);

a. universally, τたうιいおたνにゅーαあるふぁ or τί: Matthew 2:2; Matthew 4:16; Matthew 14:14; Matthew 28:6; Mark 1:10, 16; Mark 2:14; Luke 5:26; Luke 7:22; John 1:47f (f); ; Acts 9:35; Acts 12:16; Galatians 1:19; 1 Timothy 6:16, and very often. οおみくろんὐδέποτε οおみくろんὕτως εいぷしろんἴδομεν we never saw in such fashion, i. e. such a sight never befell us, Mark 2:12, old German alsohat man nicht gesehen, seit etc.; cf.

Revelation 1:16; Hebraistically (on which see Winers Grammar, § 45, 8; Buttmann, § 144, 30) ἰδών εいぷしろんἶδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー I have surely seen: Acts 7:34 after Exodus 3:7. Frequent in the historical books of the N. T. is the participleἰδών, ἰδόντες, continuing the narrative, placed before a finite verb, and either having an accusative added, as in Matthew 2:10; Matthew 3:7; Matthew 5:1; Matthew 8:34; Mark 5:22; Mark 9:20; Luke 2:48; Luke 7:13; John 5:6; John 6:14; Acts 13:12; Acts 14:11, etc.; or the accusative is omitted, as being evident from the context: Matthew 9:8, 11; Matthew 21:20; Mark 10:14; Luke 1:12; Luke 2:17; Acts 3:12; Acts 7:31, etc.

d. followed by an indirect question with the indicative: with τίς, Luke 19:3; with τί, Mark 5:14; with πηλίκος, Galatians 6:11.

e. ἔρχου καί ἴδでるたεいぷしろん, a formula of invitation, the use of which leaves the object of the seeing to be inferred by the hearers from the matter under consideration: John 11:34 (); () (here ἴδでるたεいぷしろん is equivalent to by seeing learn, namely, that Jesus is the Messiah), and Griesbach in Revelation 6:1, 5; plural John 1:39 (40) (where T Tr WH ἔρχεσθε καί ὄψεσθε). The rabbis use the phrases וחזי תא and וראה בא to command attention.

f. ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー used absolutely and πιστεύειν are contrasted in John 20:29.

2. like the Latinvideo, to perceive by any of the senses: Matthew 27:54; Mark 15:39; Luke 17:15.

3. universally, to perceive, notice, discern, discover: τήν πίστιν αあるふぁὐτたうῶνにゅー, Matthew 9:2; τάς ἐνθυμήσεις αあるふぁὐτたうῶνにゅー, Matthew 9:4 (where L Tr WH text εいぷしろんἰδώς for ἰδών); τόν διαλογισμόν τたうῆς καρδίας αあるふぁὐτたうῶνにゅー, Luke 9:47 (T WH text Tr marginal reading εいぷしろんἰδώς); ἴδでるたεいぷしろん with the accusative of the thing, Romans 11:22; followed by ὅτたうιいおた, Matthew 27:3, 24; Acts 12:3; Acts 14:9; Acts 16:19; Galatians 2:7, 14; ἴδでるたεいぷしろん, ὅτたうιいおた, John 7:52; ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー τたうιいおたνにゅーαあるふぁ, ὅτたうιいおた, Mark 12:34 (Tr brackets the accusative).

4. to see, i. e. to turn the eyes, the mind, the attention to anything;

John 8:51 (Psalm 88:49 (); τήν διαφθοράν, to pass into a state of corruption, be dissolved, Acts 2:27, 31; Acts 13:35-37 (Psalm 15:10 ()); τήν βασιλείαν τたうοおみくろんῦ Θしーたεいぷしろんοおみくろんῦ, to partake of salvation in the kingdom of God, John 3:3; πένθος, Revelation 18:7; τήν δόξαν τたうοおみくろんῦ Θしーたεいぷしろんοおみくろんῦ, by some marvelous event get a signal experience of the beneficent power of God, John 11:40; στενοχωρίας, 1 Macc. 13:3 (ἀλοχου χάριν, Homer, Iliad 11, 243); on the same use of the verb רָאָה and the Latinvidere, cf. Gesenius, Thesaurus 3, p. 1246. ἡμέραν, to live to see a day (a time) and enjoy the blessings it brings: ἡμέρας ἀγαθάς, 1 Peter 3:10 from Psalm 33:13 (); τήν ἡμέραν ἐμήν (Christ's language) the time when I should exercise my saving power on earth, John 8:56; εいぷしろんἶδでるたεいぷしろん namely, τήν ἡμέραν τήν ἐμήν, from the abode of the blessed in paradise he in spirit saw my day, ibid. (see ἀγαλλιάω, under the end); ἐπιθυμήσετε μίαν τたうῶνにゅー ἡμερῶνにゅー ... ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー, ye will wish that even a single day of the blessed coming age of the Messiah may break upon your wretched times, Luke 17:22; so in Greek writings, especially the poets, ἦμみゅーαあるふぁρろー, ἡμέραν ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー, in Latinvidere diem; cf. Kuinoel on John 8:56.

Rutherford on Babrius 11, 9)); with an accusative of place, to visit, go to: Acts 19:21. (Synonyms: 'When εいぷしろんἶδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー, ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー are called momentary preterites, it must not be supposed that thereby a quickly-past action is designated; these forms merely present the action without reference to its duration ... The unaugmented moods, too, are not exclusively past, but present or future as well — the last most decidedly in the imperative. Now it is obvious that when a perception is stated without regard to its duration, its form or mode cannot have prominence; hence ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー is much less physical than ὁρろーᾶνにゅー. ἰδでるたεいぷしろんῖνにゅー denotes to perceive with the eyes; ὁρろーᾶνにゅー (which see), on the other hand, to see, i. e. it marks the use and action of the eye as the principal thing. Perception as denoted by ἰδέαν when conceived of as completed, permits the sensuous element to be forgotten and abides merely as an activity of the soul; for οおみくろんἶδでるたαあるふぁ, εいぷしろんἰδέναι, signifies not to have seen, but to know Schmidt, chapter 11. Compare: ἀπぱいεいぷしろんῖδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー, ἐπぱいεいぷしろんῖδόν, πぱいρろーοおみくろんεいぷしろんῖδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー, σしぐまυうぷしろんνにゅーεいぷしろんῖδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー εいぷしろんἶδでるたοおみくろんνにゅー)

II. 2 perfect οおみくろんἶδでるたαあるふぁ, οおみくろんἶδας (1 Corinthians 7:16; John 21:15, for the more common οおみくろんἶσしぐまθしーたαあるふぁ, οおみくろんἴδαμεν (for ἰσしぐまμみゅーεいぷしろんνにゅー, more common in Greek), οおみくろんἴδατε (ἴσしぐまτたうεいぷしろん, the more usual classic form, is found only in Ephesians 5:5 G L T Tr WH and Hebrews 12:17 (probably also in James 1:19 according to the reading of L T Tr WH; but see below)), ὀισασι (and once the Attic ἴσασι, Acts 26:4), imperative ἴσしぐまτたうεいぷしろん, once, James 1:19 L T Tr WH (but see above), subjunctive εいぷしろんἰδでるたῶ, infinitive εいぷしろんἰδέναι, participle εいぷしろんἰδώς, εいぷしろんἰδでるたυうぷしろんῖαあるふぁ (Mark 5:33; Acts 5:7); pluperfect ᾔδでるたεいぷしろんιいおたνにゅー, 2 person everywhere ᾔδεις, 3 person ᾔδでるたεいぷしろんιいおた, plural 2 person ᾔδειτε, 3 person ᾔδεισαν (for the more common ἠδεσαν (Veitch, p. 218; Buttmann, 43 (38))); future ἐιδήσω (Hebrews 8:11); cf. Winers Grammar, 84 (81); Buttmann, 51 (44); the Sept. chiefly for ψααδα>; like the Latinnovi it has the signification of a present to know, understand; and the pluperfect the significance of an imperfect; (cf. Winer's Grammar, 274 (257)).

1. to know: with the accusative of the thing, Matthew 25:13; Mark 10:19; John 10:4; John 13:17; John 14:4; Acts 5:7; Romans 7:7; 1 Corinthians 2:2; Revelation 2:2, 9, etc.; τたうοおみくろんῦτたうοおみくろん (Rec.; others have πάντα) followed by ὅτたうιいおた, etc. Jude 1:5; with the accusative of person, Matthew 26:72, 74; John 1:31; John 6:42; Acts 3:16; 2 Corinthians 5:16, etc.; τόν Θεόν, Titus 1:16, cf. John 8:19; John 15:21; Gentiles are called οおみくろんἱ μή εいぷしろんἰδότες τόν Θεόν in 1 Thessalonians 4:5; 2 Thessalonians 1:8, cf. Galatians 4:8; the predicate of the person is added (as often in Attic), εいぷしろんἰδώς αあるふぁὐτόν ἄνδρα δίκαιον, namely, ὄνにゅーτたうαあるふぁ, Mark 6:20 (Buttmann, 304 (261)); in the form of a participle 2 Corinthians 12:2. to an accusative of the object by attraction (Winers Grammar, § 66, 5 a.; Buttmann, 377 (323)) an epexegetical clause is added (cf. especially Buttmann, 301 (258)), with ὅτたうιいおた, 1 Corinthians 16:15; 2 Corinthians 12:3; Acts 16:3; or an indirect question (Buttmann, 250f (215f)), Mark 1:24; Luke 4:34; Luke 13:25, 27; John 7:27; John 9:29. εいぷしろんἰδέναι is used with the accusative and infinitive in Luke 4:41; 1 Peter 5:9; followed by ὅτたうιいおた, Matthew 9:6; John 19:35; Acts 2:30; Romans 5:3, and very often; οおみくろんἴδαμεν Pollux by ὅτたうιいおた is not infrequently, so far as the sense is concerned, equivalent to it is well known, acknowledged: Matthew 22:16; Luke 20:21; John 3:2; John 9:31; Romans 2:2; Romans 3:19; Romans 7:14; Romans 8:22, 28; 2 Corinthians 5:1; 1 Timothy 1:8; 1 John 3:2; 1 John 5:20; cf. Lightfoot (in his Horae Hebrew et Talm.) and Baumg.-Crusius on John 3:2. frequent, especially in Paul, is the interrogative formula οおみくろんὐκかっぱ οおみくろんἴδατε and ἤ οおみくろんὐκかっぱ οおみくろんἴδατε ὅτたうιいおた, by which something well known is commended to one for his thoughtful consideration: Romans 11:2; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 1 Corinthians 5:6; 1 Corinthians 6:2f, 9, 15f, 19; 1 Corinthians 9:13, 24; οおみくろんὐκかっぱ οおみくろんἴδατε followed by an indirect question.
