Explanation: This verb means 'to remember' or 'to recall'. It describes the act of bringing something back into one's mind. Although morphologically passive, it often carries a middle voice meaning in Koine Greek, indicating an action performed by the subject upon themselves or for their own benefit, hence 'I remembered' rather than 'I was remembered'.
