'Know' in the Bible

But Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

Jesus summoned them, and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

They answered Jesus, "We don't know." Jesus said to them, "Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things."

When they had come, they asked him, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don't defer to anyone; for you aren't partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

"Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near;

even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.

Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don't know when the time is.

Watch therefore, for you don't know when the lord of the house is coming, whether at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning;

Again he returned, and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy, and they didn't know what to answer him.

But he denied it, saying, "I neither know, nor understand what you are saying." He went out on the porch, and the rooster crowed.

saying, "Ah! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God!"

But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" (he said to the paralyzed man), "I tell you, arise, and take up your cot, and go to your house."

He said, "To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables; that 'seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.'

'Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.'

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"

but he who didn't know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whoever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don't interpret this time?

He will say, 'I tell you, I don't know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'

I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.'

You know the commandments: 'Don't commit adultery,' 'Don't murder,' 'Don't steal,' 'Don't give false testimony,' 'Honor your father and your mother.'"

"It happened when he had come back again, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business.

They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren't partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

"But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.

Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and didn't know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,

The same came to him by night, and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."

The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don't know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

Most certainly I tell you, we speak that which we know, and testify of that which we have seen, and you don't receive our witness.

The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah comes," (he who is called Christ). "When he has come, he will declare to us all things."

But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you don't know about."

They said to the woman, "Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world."

But he who was healed didn't know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.

It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.

But I know you, that you don't have God's love in yourselves.

They said, "Isn't this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say, 'I have come down out of heaven?'"

We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

The Jews therefore marveled, saying, "How does this man know letters, having never been educated?"

If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

However we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from."

Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don't know.

I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me."

But this multitude that doesn't know the law is accursed."

Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don't know where I came from, or where I am going.

They said therefore to him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."

I know that you are Abraham's seed, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

Then the Jews said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, 'If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death.'

You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I don't know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.

Then they asked him, "Where is he?" He said, "I don't know."

His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."

So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."

Whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they don't know the voice of strangers."

I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I'm known by my own;

even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

But if I do them, though you don't believe me, believe the works; that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."

Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you."

Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn't overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn't know where he is going.

I know that his commandment is eternal life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak."

Jesus answered him, "You don't know what I am doing now, but you will understand later."

So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

I don't speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.'

By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

Where I go, you know, and you know the way."

Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going. How can we know the way?"

If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him."

Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, 'Show us the Father?'
