ἀνακρίνω anakrínō, an-ak-ree'-no; from G303 and G2919; properly, to scrutinize, i.e. (by implication) investigate, interrogate, determine:—ask, question, discern, examine, judge, search.
STRONGS G350:
ἀνακρίνω; 1 aorist ἀνέκρινα; passive [present ἀνακρίνομαι]; 1 aorist ἀνεκρίθην; (frequent in Greek writings, especially Attic); properly, by looking through a series (ἀνά) of objects or particulars to distinguish (κρίνω) or search after. Hence,
a. to investigate, examine, inquire into, scrutinize, sift, question: Acts 17:11 (τὰς γραφάς); 1 Corinthians 10:25, 27 (not anxiously questioning, namely, whether the meat set before you be the residue from heathen sacrifices). Specifically, in a forensic sense (often also in Greek writings) of a judge, to hold an investigation; to interrogate, examine, the accused or the witnesses; absolutely: Luke 23:14; Acts 24:8. τινά, Acts 12:19; Acts 28:18; passive, Acts 4:9. Paul has in mind this judicial use (as his preceding term ἀπολογία shows) when in 1 Corinthians 9:3 he speaks of τοῖς ἐμὲ ἀνακρίνουσι, investigating me, whether I am a true apostle.
b. universally, to judge of, estimate, determine (the excellence or defects of any person or thing): τί, 1 Corinthians 2:15; τινά, 1 Corinthians 4:3f; passive, [1 Corinthians 2:14],1 Corinthians 2:15; 1 Corinthians 14:24.
[Cf. Lightfoot Fresh Revision, etc. iv. § 3 (p. 67f, American edition).]
