“Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.”
Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you — The disciples' faith matures from external witnessing to internal understanding (ginōskō): they comprehend that Jesus' mission, authority, and teachings originate from the Father. This knowing is both a grace completed ("now they know") and foundational to their future faith. The verse emphasizes the Father's priority in the divine economy while affirming the Son's perfect obedience and transmission of all things.
