Zeal according to knowledge

The Lord Jesus Christ is surely the ultimate example of “zeal according to knowledge” (Rom 10:2; cf. Prov 19:2).

Jesus’ disciples remembered that it is written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.” (John 2:17 quoting Ps 69:9)

And, John tells us, “Jesus would not entrust himself to them [those who saw the signs he was doing], for he knew all men. He did not need man’s testimony about man, for he knew what was in a man.” (John 2:24-25)
