Can anyone tell me the reason for the translation of PROGINOSKW as 
"foreordained" in 1 Pet 1:20, when it is translated "foreknow" in many 
other places? (1 Pet 1:2, Rom 8, Rom 11:2)  Don't worry about appearing to 
be Calvinist or Arminian, I just want to know what the nature of PROGINOSKW 
is, and how this may support either view.  Is Peter's usage unique?  Or is 
it used similar ways in other literature?
