STRONGS NT 2045: ἐρευνάω

ἐρευνάω, ἐρεύνω; 1 aorist imperative ἐρεύνησον; (ἡ ἐρευνᾷ a search); from Homer down; to search, examine into: absolutely, John 7:52; τί, John 5:39; Romans 8:27; 1 Corinthians 2:10; Revelation 2:23 with which passage cf. Jeremiah 11:20; Jeremiah 17:10; Jeremiah 20:12; followed by an indirect question, 1 Peter 1:11 (2 Samuel 10:3; Proverbs 20:27). The form ἐραυνάω (which see in its place) T Tr WH have received everywhere into the text, but Lachmann only in Revelation 2:23. (Compare: ἐξερευνάω.)
