Thayer's Greek Lexicon

ἀνάμνησις, ἀναμνησεως, (ἀναμιμνῄσκω), a remembering, recollection: εἰς τήν ἐμήν ἀνάμνησιν to call me (affectionately) to remembrance, Luk 22:19 (WH reject the passage); 1Co 11:24 f, ἐν αὐταῖς (namely, θυσίαις) ἀνάμνησις ἁμαρτιῶν in offering sacrifices there is a remembrance of sins, i. e. the memory of sins committed is revived by the sacrifices, Heb 10:3. In Greek writings from Plato down. [SYNONYMS: ἀνάμνησις, ὑπόμνησις: The distinction between these words as stated by Ammonius and others — viz. that ἀνάμνησις denotes an unassisted recalling, ὑπόμνησις a remembrance prompted by another — seems to be not wholly without warrant; note the force of ὑπό (cf. our ’suggest’). But even in classical Greek the words are easily interchangeable. Schmidt, chapter 14; Trench, § cvii. 6, cf., p. 61 note; Ellicott or Holtzm. on 2Ti 1:5.]
