Footnotes
The Son's not knowing is a genuine affirmation of the kenosis (κένωσις, Philippians 2:7) — the self-emptying of the incarnation in which the Son took on genuine human limitation. Remarkably, Yeshua places Himself in sequence with the messengers/angels yet distinctly above them, and speaks of the Father as a distinct Person with exclusive knowledge. It is a paradoxically high Christology: only One who is truly divine could speak of Himself and the Father this way in the same breath.
