1830 eksereunáō (from 1537 /ek, "wholly out from," intensifying 2045 /ereunáō, "search") – properly, search out with all diligence (effort); "search carefully" (A-S), in an investigative manner (inquiring after facts); to "examine carefully (minutely)" (Souter).

1830 /eksereunáō ("diligently search") is used only in 1 Pet 1:10. Here it focuses on the end-result of the searching, i.e. the fulfillment of salvation (unique glorification) in a believer's life (cf. 1 Pet 3:9).

["The ek in composition has the force of out, searched out, and is rendered by diligently" (WS, 302).]
