25. “He needed not that any man should give testimony,” etc. Unlike most men placed in authority, who must derive information from others, He needed not this; “for He knew what was in man.” He saw not only the exterior, but, the very secrets, the inmost recesses, of the human heart; nay, even man’s future line of free action. As God, He knew the secrets of man’s hearts, the future, as well as the present. Hence, He knew of Himself, how far man was to be trusted. This is a strong testimony in favour
John 2:25
