It emphasizes the collective nature of being chosen by God, often in the context of the community of believers. This term underscores the unity and shared identity of those who are part of God's elect.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being "chosen" or "elect" was often associated with privilege and status. In the Jewish tradition, Israel was considered God's chosen people, a concept that carried over into early Christianity. The early church saw itself as the continuation and fulfillment of this chosen status, now extended to both Jews and Gentiles who believed in Christ. The use of "suneklektos" would have reinforced the idea of a new, inclusive community united in faith.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>4899</b> <i>syneklektós</i> (from <a href="/greek/4862.htm">4862</a> <i>/sýn</i>, "identity <i>with</i>" and <a href="/greek/1588.htm">1588</a> <i>/eklektós</i>, "chosen") – properly, <i>fellow-elect</i>, i.e. believers who <i>belong to each other</i> because each <i>belongs to the Lord</i> (used only in 1 Pet 5:13). <a href="/greek/1588.htm">See 1588</a> (<i>eklektos</i>).</p><p class="discovery"><a href="/greek/4899.htm">4899</a> <i>/syneklektós</i> ("chosen together") refers to believers as divinely-<i>chosen</i> (<i>selected</i>) – a theme elaborated on earlier in the epistle (1 Pet 1:1,2). <tab>1 Pet 5:13: "She who is in Babylon, <i>chosen together</i> (<a href="/greek/4899.htm">4899</a> <i>/syneklektós</i>) with you, sends you greetings, and so does my son, Mark" (<i>NASU</i>).</p><p class="discovery">1 Pet 1:1,2: "<sup>1</sup>To those who reside as aliens, scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, <i>who are chosen <sup>2</sup>according to the foreknowledge of God the Father</i>, by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood: May grace and peace be yours in the fullest measure" (<i>NASU</i>).</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/4862.htm">sun</a> and <a href="/greek/1586.htm">eklegó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>chosen together with<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>chosen together (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 4899: συνεκλεκτός</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">συνεκλεκτός</span></span>, <span class="greek2">συνεκλεκτή</span>, <span class="greek2">συνεκλεκτον</span> (see <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">ἐκλεκτός</span></span>), <span class="accented">elected or chosen (by God to eternal life) together with</span>: <a href="/interlinear/1_peter/5-13.htm">1 Peter 5:13</a>.<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>elected together <p>From a compound of <a href="/greek/4862.htm">sun</a> and <a href="/greek/1586.htm">eklegomai</a>;
