Matthew 25:12

Mat. 25:12. "But He answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not." Romans 8:29, "For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren." To judge of the force of this expression, see Matthew 25:12; Deuteronomy 33:9; Job 9:21, and Psalms 31:7. In Exodus 2:25, "God had respect unto them," in the original is, "God knew them." Thus the word in Hebrew, is a kinsman or near friend, and also kindred and affinity, from the verb to know. See Job 9:21 and Proverbs 12:10, "'Regardeth' the life of his beast," in the original is, "'Knoweth' the life of his beast."
