Hath; hath some knowledge of these mysteries.

Shall be given; more knowledge. It is a practical knowledge of which the Saviour speaks, implying love towards him, and a desire to understand the truths which he taught.

Hath not; hath not knowledge, because he hath neither love towards me nor desire to know my truth.

Even that he hath; his present opportunities and privileges for knowing the truth. The Saviour here lays down a general principle of deep and solemn import, which all who hope to be saved would do well to ponder in their hearts. The way to have more light and grace is to make a diligent improvement of what is now granted to us.
