What does the Bible say about revelation in Matthew 11?

Answered in 1 source

In Matthew 11:25-30, Jesus explains that God reveals truths to those who are humble, while hiding them from the wise, emphasizing His authority in revealing God.

In Matthew 11:25-30, Jesus provides a profound insight into divine revelation, stating, 'I thank Thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent and hast revealed them unto babes' (Matt. 11:25). This passage encapsulates one of the core truths of sovereign grace theology: God reveals Himself to those He chooses, often not to the proud or self-sufficient, but to the humble and dependent. This means knowing Him and His truths is not based on human wisdom or merit but on His sovereign will. It shows the intentionality of God in revealing Christ to His people, making clear that Jesus is the one through whom we understand God (Matt. 11:27).
