SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:32
Pero de aquel día y de la hora, nadie sabe; ni aun los ngeles que estn en el cielo, ni el mismo Hijo, sino slo el Padre.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Mark 13:32
Verse 32. Neither the Son] This clause is not found either in Matthew or Luke; and Ambrose says it was wanting in some Greek copies in his time. To me it is utterly unaccountable, how Jesus, who knew so correctly all the particulars which he here lays down, and which were to a jot and tittle verified by the event-how he who knew that not one stone should be left on another, should be ignorant of the day and hour when this should be done, though Daniel, Dan. ix. 24, &c., could fix the very year, not less than five hundred years before it happened: how he in whom the fullness of the Godhead dwelt bodily, and all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, should not know this small matter, I cannot comprehend, but on this ground, that the Deity which dwelt in the man Christ Jesus might, at one time, communicate less of the knowledge of futurity to him than at another. However, I strongly suspect that the clause was not originally in this Gospel. Its not being found in the parallel places in the other evangelists is, in my opinion, a strong presumption against it. But Dr. Macknight, and others, solve this difficulty in the following manner. They suppose the verb oiden to have the force of the Hebrew conjugation Hiphel, in which verbs are taken in a causative, declarative, or permissive sense; and that it means here, make known, or promulge, as it is to be understood in 1 Cor. ii. 2. This intimates that this secret was not to be made known, either by men or angels, no, not even by the Son of man himself; but it should be made known by the Father only, in the execution of the purposes of his justice. I am afraid this only cuts the knot, but does not untie it.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 32. But of that day, and of that hour , etc..] Of Jerusalem's destruction; for of nothing else had Christ been speaking; and, it is plain, the words are anaphorical, and relate to what goes before: knoweth no man ; nay, they that lived to see it, and have spoken of it, are not agreed about the particular day, when it was; much less did they know it beforehand, or could speak of it, and make it known to others: no, not the angels which are in heaven ; who are acquainted with many of the divine secrets, and have been employed in the imparting them to others, and in the executing divine purposes: neither the Son ; Christ, as the son of man; though he did know it as the Son of God, who knows all things, and so this; but as the son of man, and from his human nature he had no knowledge of any thing future: what knowledge he had of future things in his humanity, he had from his deity; nor, as man, had he any commission to make known, nor did he make known the day of God's vengeance on the Jews: but the Father ; who has the times and seasons in his own power, for the executing of any particular judgment on a nation, or the general one; (see Gill on Matthew 24:36).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 28-37 - We have the application of this prophetic sermon. As to the destructio of Jerusalem, expect it to come very shortly. As to the end of the world, do not inquire when it will come, for of that day and that hou knoweth no man. Christ, as God, could not be ignorant of anything; but the Divine wisdom which dwelt in our Saviour, communicated itself to his human soul according to the Divine pleasure. As to both, our duty is to watch and pray. Our Lord Jesus, when he ascended on high, lef something for all his servants to do. We ought to be always upon ou watch, in expectation of his return. This applies to Christ's coming to us at our death, as well as to the general judgment. We know no whether our Master will come in the days of youth, or middle age, or old age; but, as soon as we are born, we begin to die, and therefore we must expect death. Our great care must be, that, whenever our Lor comes, he may not find us secure, indulging in ease and sloth, mindles of our work and duty. He says to all, Watch, that you may be found i peace, without spot, and blameless __________________________________________________________________

Robertson's NT Word Studies
13:32 {Not even the Son} (oude ho huios). There is no doubt as to the genuineness of these words here such as exists in #Mt 24:36. this disclaimer of knowledge naturally interpreted applies to the second coming, not to the destruction of Jerusalem which had been definitely limited to that generation as it happened in A.D. 70.
