Notes: [{'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'It is possible that ἐπιγινώσκω[b] differs somewhat in meaning from γινώσκω[d] in focusing attention on what is understood or indicating that the process of understanding is somewhat more emphatic, but such a distinction cannot be determined from existing contexts.'}, {'Caller': 2, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'Though ἐπιγινώσκω does occur in certain legal contexts, it still means essentially to acquire more exact or detailed information, and therefore it does not seem necessary to set up a distinct meaning for ἐπιγινώσκω merely because of its use in such contexts.'}]
