In the New Testament, it is frequently used to describe God's sovereign choice or election of individuals or groups for a specific purpose or destiny. This term underscores the concept of divine selection, emphasizing God's initiative and authority in the process of choosing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of choosing or electing was common in both civic and personal contexts, such as selecting leaders or making personal decisions. In the Jewish tradition, the idea of being chosen by God was deeply rooted in the identity of Israel as God's elect nation. The New Testament writers, particularly Paul, expand this concept to include the Church as the elect of God, chosen for salvation and service.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>1586</b> <i>eklégomai</i> (from <a href="/greek/1537.htm">1537</a> <i>/ek</i>, "out of" and <a href="/greek/3004.htm">3004</a> <i>/légō</i>, "<i>speaking</i> to a conclusion") – properly, to select (choose) out of, by a highly deliberate choice (i.e. real heart-preference) with a definite <i>out</i>come (as with the destination of divine selection for salvation).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1537.htm">ek</a> and <a href="/greek/3004.htm">legó</a> (in the sense of pick up)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to select<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>choose (4), chose (7), chosen (8), made a choice (1), picking (1), select (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1586: ἐκλέγω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἐκλέγω</span></span>: perfect passive participle <span class="greek2">ἐκλελεγμένος</span>, once in <a href="/interlinear/luke/9-35.htm">Luke 9:35</a> <span class="manuref">L</span> marginal reading <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>; middle, imperfect <span class="greek2">ἐξελεγομην</span> (<a href="/interlinear/luke/14-7.htm">Luke 14:7</a>); 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἐξελεξάμην</span>; in Greek writings from <span class="abbreviation">Herodotus</span> down; the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> for <span class="hebrew">בָּחַר</span>; <span class="accented">to pick out, choose</span>; in the N.
