But of that day and that hour knows no man, no, not the angels who are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
All Commentaries on Mark 13:32 Go To Mark 13
Irenaeus of Lyons
AD 202
The gnostics presumptuously assume acquaintance with the unspeakable mysteries of God. Remember that even the Lord, the very Son of God, allowed that the Father alone knows the very day and hour of judgment…. If then the Son was not ashamed to ascribe the knowledge of that day to the Father only, but declared what was true regarding the matter, neither let us be ashamed to reserve for God those enigmatic questions which come our way. .
