Disciples’ Literal New Testament
It Pleases God To Hide The Kingdom From The Wise And Reveal It To The Childlike
25 At that time, having responded, Jesus said, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that[a] You hid these things from wise ones and intelligent ones, and You revealed them to children[b]. 26 Yes, Father, because[c] in-this-manner it became well-pleasing in Your sight. 27 All things were handed-over to Me by My Father. And no one knows[d] the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom[e] the Son wills[f] to reveal Him.
