THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW - Chapter 25 - Verse 12

Verse 12. I know you not. You were not in the company of those who attended me to the marriage feast, and are unknown to me. Applied to professing Christians, having only a profession of religion, but no real piety, it means I know, or acknowledge you not as Christians. I do not approve of you, or delight in you, or admit you to be my friends. The word know is often used in the sense of approving, loving, acknowledging as real friends and followers. See Mt 7:23 Psa 1:6; 2 Ti 2:19; 1 Th 5:12.

{g} "I know you not" Hab 1:13
