But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father — the day or hour of the final coming is unknown to everyone except the Father. Not even the angels and not even the Son: the limitation of knowledge about the timing is absolute, applying even to the divine Son in his earthly ministry. The theological puzzle of the Son's limited knowledge has generated extensive discussion; the most common resolution notes that the Son in his incarnate state voluntarily limited access to certain divine prerogatives.
