Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
ἀποκαραδοκία apokaradokía, ap-ok-ar-ad-ok-ee'-ah; from a comparative of G575 and a compound of κάρα kára (the head) and G1380 (in the sense of watching); intense anticipation:—earnest expectation.
STRONGS G603:
ἀποκαραδοκία, -ας, ἡ, (from ἀποκαραδοκεῖν, and this from ἀπό, κάρα, the head, and δοκεῖν in the Ionic dialect, to watch; hence, καραδοκεῖν [Herodotus 7. 163, 168; Xenophon, mem. 3, 5, 6; Euripides, others] to watch with head erect or outstretched, to direct attention to anything, to wait for in suspense; ἀποκαραδοκεῖν (Polybius 16, 2, 8; 18, 31, 4; 22, 19, 3; [Plutarch, parall., p. 310, 43, vol. vii., p. 235, Reiske edition]; Josephus, b. j. 3, 7, 26, and in Psalm 36:7 (Ps. 37:7) Aq. for חִתְחוֹלַל), anxiously [?] to look forth from one's post. But the prefix ἀπό refers also to time (like the German ab in abwarten [cf. English wait it out]), so that it signifies constancy in expecting; hence, the noun, found in Paul alone and but twice, denotes), anxious [?] and persistent expectation: Romans 8:19; Philippians 1:20. This word is very fully discussed by C. F. A. Fritzsche in Fritzschiorum Opuscc., p. 150ff; [cf. Ellicott and Lightfoot on Philippians, the passage cited].
