The purpose of this dissertation was to analyze passages containing the phrases of "knowledge of God" and "knowing God," as well as supplementary references. The study was approached in two steps. First, the researcher performed an etymological study of the primary terms, usd\gamma\iota\nu\acute\omega\sigma\kappa\omegausd and usd\gamma\nu\\omega\sigma\iota\varsigmausd, and the secondary terms, usd\epsilon\pi\iota\gamma\iota\nu\acute\omega\sigma\kappa\omegausd, usd\epsilon\pi\acute\iota\gamma\nu\omega\sigma\iota\varsigmausd, and usdo\iota\delta\alphausd. Second, an exegetical study was performed on the passages containing the primary and secondary terms with God as an object of the verb or a part of the nominal construct. Included also in the exegetical study was an examination of selected supplementary references. Chapter one is a brief etymological study of the primary and secondary terms. Chapter two is an exegetical analysis of the references which contain the primary terms with God either as an object of the verb or a part of the nominal construct. Chapter three is an exegetical analysis of the references which contain the secondary terms with God either as an object of the verb or a part of the nominal construct. Also included in this chapter is an examination of supplementary references to "knowing God." The following conclusions were drawn from this study. First, Paul used the phrase "knowledge of God" to denote God's concern for mankind and, particularly, God's concern for his children. Second, Paul characterized those outside of a relationship with God as being ones who "do not know God." Third, when used in reference to a Christian, the phrase "knowledge of God" implied a relationship between God and man. This relationship emanated in a daily, positive response to God and to his will based upon faith. Fourth, Paul's usage of the phrase "knowledge of God" and "knowing God" corresponded with that of the Hebrew usage of the phrases.
