γινώσκω,
(1097) signifies to be taking in knowledge, to come to know,

Luke 1:34-35
Then Mary said to the angel, How shall this be, since I do
not know a man? 35 And the angel answered and said to her,
The Holy Spirit shall come on you, and the power of the Highest
shall overshadow you. Therefore also that Holy One which will be
born of you shall be called Son of God.
John 17:1-3
Jesus spoke these words and lifted up His eyes to Heaven and
said, Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son so that Your
Son also may glorify You, 2 even as You have given Him
authority over all flesh so that He should give eternal life to
all You have given Him. 3 And this is life eternal, that
they might know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ
whom You have sent.
John 1:9-13
He was the true Light; He enlightens every man coming
into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world came
into being through Him, and the world did not know Him.
11 He came to His own, and His own received Him
not. 12 But as many as received Him, He gave to them authority
to become the children of God, to those who believe on His
name, 13 who were born, not of bloods, nor of the will
of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but were
born of God.
John 14:16-20
And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another
Comforter, so that He may be with you forever, 17 the Spirit
of Truth, whom the world cannot receive because it does not
see Him nor know Him. But you know Him, for He
dwells with you and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave
you orphans. I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while
and the world does not see Me any more. But you see Me. Because
I live, you shall live also. 20 At that day you shall know
that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.
John 10:14-15
I am the Good Shepherd, and I know those that are Mine,
and I am known by those who are Mine. 15 Even as the
Father knows Me, I also know the Father. And I lay
down My life for the sheep.
John 10:27-30
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they
follow Me. 28 And I give to them eternal life, and they
shall never ever perish, and not anyone shall pluck them out of
My hand. 29 My Father who gave them to me is greater
than all, and no one is able to pluck them out of My
Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one!
John 13:34-35
I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. As I
have loved you, you should also love one another. 35 By
this all shall know that you are My disciples, if you have love
toward one another.
Eph 3:14-19
For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, 15 of whom the whole family in Heaven and earth is
named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of
His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the
inner man; 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith;
that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to
comprehend with all saints what is the breadth and length
and depth and height, 19 and to know the love of Christ
which passes knowledge [1108], that you might be filled with
all the fullness of God.
γνwvσις
, (1108)), primarily a seeking to know, an enquiry,
investigation (akin to A,
No. 1), denotes, in the
N.T.,
knowledge, especially of spiritual truth[2]
Phil. 3:8-11
But no, rather, I also count all things to be loss for the
excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose
sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them
to be dung, so that I may
win Christ 9 and be found in
Him; not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but
through the faith of
Christ, the righteousness of God by faith,
10 that I may know Him and
the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His
sufferings, being made conformable to His death;
11 if by any means I might
attain to the resurrection of the dead.
1 John 2:3-5
And by this we know that we have known Him, if we keep His
commandments. 4 He who
says, I have known Him, and does not keep His commandments,
is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 But whoever keeps His Word,
truly in this one the love of God is perfected. By this we
know that we are in Him.
1 John
3:16-20 By this we have known the love
of God, because He laid down
His life for us. And we ought to lay down
our lives for the brothers.
17 But whoever has this world's
goods and sees his brother having need, and shuts up his bowels
from him, how does the love of God dwell in him?
18 My children, let us not love
in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
19 And in this we shall know
that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before
Him, 20 that if our heart
accuses us, God is greater than our heart and knows all
things.
