"I Never Knew You": The Greek Word in Matthew 7:23 Most Readers Miss

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “I never knew you” in Matthew 7:23? The Greek word behind this shocking statement reveals a deeper meaning that is easy to miss when we read the verse only in English. In this biblical documentary, we examine Matthew 7:21–23 in its original context, explore the Greek word ginōskō (γινώσκω), and ask what Jesus meant by “knowing” someone. Was Jesus talking about intellectual knowledge? A relationship? Recognition? Or something much deeper? We’ll also examine the warning surrounding the passage, the people who claim to have prophesied and performed miracles in Jesus’ name, and why Jesus ultimately says, “I never knew you.” This isn't simply about knowing about Jesus. It is about whether Jesus knows you. 📖 Key Scripture: Matthew 7:21–23 📜 SCRIPTURE REFERENCES: Matthew 7:21–23 Matthew 7:24–27 John 10:14 John 17:3 Galatians 4:9 1 Corinthians 8:3 If this study helped you understand Matthew 7:23 differently, subscribe for more biblical documentaries exploring the words, symbols, historical context, and hidden details of Scripture. #Bible #Matthew7 #Jesus #BibleStudy #Christianity
