5 Jesus looked up then, and seeing that a vast multitude was coming toward Him, He said to Philip, Where are we to buy bread, so that all these people may eat? 6 But He said this to prove (test) him, for He well knew what He was about to do. John 6:5-6 AMP

For your consideration - The HS dropped this in my mind when I read your post.

Thanks for reading my post. I appreciate your responses.

In that Biblical case, Jesus knew what He was going to do already, but was testing Phillip’s faith (with a smile, I like to imagine!). In the sermon on the mount segment in The Chosen Jesus was corrected by Matthew, and Jesus decided Matthew was right and He was wrong. The Chosen’s error is trying to turn the Lion of Judah into one of the fellas. He is no different from his own disciples. In fact, they re often smarter.
