Tr br. the cl.]; xxii. 14, a distinction which does not agree with Paul's view (see καλέω, u. s.; [ Weiss, Bibl. Theol. § 88; Bp. Lghtft.

πρό-θεσις (pro-thesis, 4286), -εως, ἡ, (προτίθημι);

  29For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son,

προγινώσκω (proginōskō 4267)
1. foreknow -knew
to know, perceive, learn or understand beforehand, to take note of before. Reference(s)

2. know -est,-eth,-ing; knew, -est
(γινώσκω (ginōskō 1097) with πρό (pro 4253) before, prefixed) to perceive or apprehend beforehand, to know previously, to foreknow.Reference(s)

3. foreordain

προορίζω (proorizō 4309)
1. predestinate -ed
to set bounds before, determine, decree or ordain beforehand. [In Rom 8:30, it is simply a formal conception, and not (like προγινώσκω (proginōskō 4267) in verse 29) an independent conception, complete in itself. When προορίζω (proorizō 4309) is used, the question is not who are its objects, but what they are predestined to do. προορίζω (proorizō 4309) precedes history, and those who, in history, God “foreknows”. (προγίνωσκω (proginōskō 4267)) are the subjects of what He has before all history prepared and counselled for them.]Reference(s)

2. determine before
to mark out beforehand, to make or set a bound before. Reference(s)

3. ordain -ed
(ὁρίζω (horizō 3724) with πρό (pro 4253) before, prefixed) to mark out before, predetermine.
