On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

And then will I profess unto them--or, openly proclaim--tearing off the mask. I never knew you--What they claimed--intimacy with Christ--is just what He repudiates, and with a certain scornful dignity. "Our acquaintance was not broken off--there never was any." depart from me--(Compare Mt 25:41).

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

I never knew you - There never was a time that I approved of you: so that as many souls as they had saved, they were themselves never saved from their sins.
