πρόγνωσις. A knowledge of persons and events before they exist. It is one of the divine attributes of God, by which persons were foreknown of Him and events determined. It is a capacity altogether beyond the mind of man to grasp. Acts 2:23; Romans 8:29; Romans 11:2; 1 Peter 1:2 . The verb is also translated 'know before,' 2 Peter 3:17; and 'foreordain.' 1 Peter 1:20 .
