4
who desires that all men should be saved and come to the knowledgeh of the truth.

JND Translation Notes

+
h
Epignosis, as Col. 1.10, where it is translated "true knowledge." It is that which acknowledges the truth of a thing, and to know the truth thus suggests possession of it. But "full knowledge" here would hardly be an appropriate translation, as it would imply a contrast with "partial knowledge."

W. Kelly Translation

4
who desiretha that all men should be saved and come unto full knowledgeb of truth.

WK Translation Notes

a
It is the expression of desire, not of counsel.
b
Or, acknowledgment.
