Come to know!
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/decisive aspect), active voice, imperative mood, second person singular. A direct command addressed to one individual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb γνῶθι is an aorist active imperative, second person singular. The aorist imperative often conveys a decisive or ingressive action, so "Come to know!" reflects the call to enter into knowledge or recognition, preserving both the root meaning of γινώσκω and the force of the command. |
