G5049 G5049
completely, fully, perfectly; with complete thoroughness
This adverb means completely, fully, or perfectly. In 1 Peter 1:13, Peter urges believers to 'set your hope fully on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.' The adverb emphasizes undivided, complete commitment—not partial or wavering hope. Classical usage described complete fulfillment or perfect execution. The cross-linguistic rendering varies between 'fully' (English), 'completely' (Spanish), and 'völlig' (German—totally), but all emphasize thoroughness and wholeness. This is total, not tentative, hope.
