Hi and welcome to the forum and Unix community.
grep(1) is the tool you are looking for.
will output all lines that contain 'string1'
grep is a filter -- it is line based. It reads in a line, does a search, and prints the line if found; and takes the next line to process.
You can use -A<num> option to get <num> lines After the match, like this:
string to search for needs to be in double quotes if it contains spaces. Same for file. You can use variables, of course:
Look at the manual pages to find about grep's options on your system.

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
