What does the Bible say about God's omniscience?

Answered in 11 sources

The Bible teaches that God's omniscience means He possesses infinite and intimate knowledge of all things, without ever learning anything new.

God's omniscience is a central tenet of Scripture, reflecting His infinite and intimate knowledge of all creation and His creatures. In Psalm 139:1-4, it is stated, 'O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising; thou understandest my thought afar off.' This passage highlights that God knows us completely, including our thoughts and actions. He has never learned anything, as He has known all things from eternity (Hebrews 4:13). Thus, the knowledge of God is not only comprehensive but also deeply personal, as He is intimately aware of the hearts and minds of His covenant children.
