Observation, Observe:

"attentive watching" (akin to paratereo, "to observe"), is used in Luk 17:20, of the manner in which the kingdom of God (i.e., the operation of the spiritual kingdom in the hearts of men) does not come, "in such a manner that it can be watched with the eyes" (Grimm-Thayer), or, as AV marg., "with outward show."

B-1 Verb Strong's Number: g333 Greek: anatheoreo
