STRONGS G1807:
ἐξαιρέω, -ῶ: 2 aorist imperative ἔξελε; middle [present participle ἐξαιρούμενος]; 2 aorist ἐξειλόμην and in Alex. form (L T Tr WH) ἐξειλάμην (Acts 7:10 [so Griesbach]; Acts 12:11 [so Griesbach]; Acts 23:27; see references in [αἱρέω and] ἐπέρχομαι), infinitive ἐξελέσθαι (Acts 7:34); Sept. usually for הִצִּיל; to take out [cf. ἐκ, VI. 2];
1. to pluck out, draw out, i. e. to root out: τὸν ὀφθαλμόν, Matthew 5:29; Matthew 18:9.
2. Middle
a. to choose out (for oneself), select, one person from many: Acts 26:17 (so for בָּחַר in Isaiah 49:7 [but there the Sept. has ἐξελεξάμην; perhaps Isaiah 48:10 is meant] and sometimes in Greek writings; first in Homer, Odyssey 14, 232) [others refer Acts, the passage cited to the next head; (see Hackett at the passage)].
b. to rescue, deliver (properly, to cause to be rescued, but the middle force is lost [cf. Winer's Grammar, 253 (238)]): τινά, Acts 7:34; Acts 23:27; τινὰ ἔκ τινος, Acts 7:10; Acts 12:11; Galatians 1:4; (Exodus 3:8, etc.; Aeschylus suppl. 924; Herodotus 3, 137; Demosthenes, 256, 3; Polybius 1, 11, 11).
