1822 eksartízō (from 1537 /ek, "completely out from" intensifying artizō, "make suitable") – properly, fitted (because fully suitable) because all the parts work together. 1822 /eksartízō ("entirely outfitted") is used in the passive voice in 2 Tim 3:17, stressing the end-impact of Scripture on the receptive believer. Indeed the Bible thoroughly fits ("furnishes") each believer to live in full communion with God. (Note the intensifying force of the prefix, ek.)

ἐξαρτίζω: 1 aorist infinitive ἐξαρτίσαι; perfect passive participle ἐξηρτισμένος; (see ἄρτιος, 2); rare in secular authors; to complete, finish;

a. to furnish perfectly: τινα, passive, πρός τί, 2 Timothy 3:17 (πολεμεῖν ... τοῖς ἅπασι καλῶς ἐξηρτίσμενοι, Josephus, Antiquities 3, 2, 2).

Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the preposition ἐκ (ek, meaning "out of" or "from") and the verb ἀρτίζω (artízō, meaning "to complete" or "to equip").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐξαρτίζω, the concept of being equipped or completed can be related to Hebrew terms such as כָּלָה (kalah, Strong's 3615, meaning "to complete" or "to finish") and תָּמַם (tamam, Strong's 8552, meaning "to be complete" or "to be finished"). These terms similarly convey the idea of bringing something to its intended state of readiness or completion.

Usage: The verb ἐξαρτίζω is used in the New Testament to convey the idea of making something complete or equipping it thoroughly for a specific purpose or task.

Context: The Greek verb ἐξαρτίζω appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the thorough preparation or equipping of individuals or objects for their intended purpose. This term is notably used in 2 Timothy 3:17, where it describes the effect of Scripture on a believer: "so that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work" (BSB). Here, ἐξαρτίζω underscores the sufficiency and comprehensive nature of Scripture in preparing believers for all aspects of righteous living and service.

The concept of being "fully equipped" implies not only having the necessary tools or knowledge but also being prepared in character and spirit to undertake the tasks set before one. This aligns with the broader biblical theme of God providing His people with what they need to fulfill His purposes.

In the cultural context of the New Testament, the term would resonate with the idea of a craftsman or soldier being fully outfitted with the necessary tools or armor to perform their duties effectively. Thus, ἐξαρτίζω conveys a sense of readiness and completeness that is both practical and spiritual.
