ὀπτανόμενος
to gaze (i.e., with wide-open eyes, as at something remarkable; and thus differing from g0991, which denotes simply voluntary observation; and from g1492, which expresses merely mechanical, passive or casual vision; while g2300, and still more emphatically its intensive g2334, signifies an earnest but more continued inspection; and g4648 a watching from a distance)
