Jesus does not know everything.
Mt.24:36 “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father."

I don't think Jesus knew everything, but asking questions, or answering questions with questions are signs of great thinking.

I have read that it is possible to put a peanut on the end of a fishing pole line, dangle the thing just in front of a hamster on a tread mill, and he will attempt to chase it until he collapses believing the whole time there's a point in getting to the peanut.
I have never tried this experiment, but apparently some people have.

He needed to ask questions so he could use the answers later! Kind of like a Y!A user asking questions about Buddhism and then going around professing it as if he knew it all along.
He had to do a lot of convincing!!

Best way to teach is to ask questions to get people to think. Ask any good teacher and they will tell you the same, ask questions to get thoughts going and you will learn a lot better than just talking and giving facts.

The same reason so many here ask the questions that they do. Not because that do not know the answer. Most of them think they do know the answer. They are seeking an opportunity to share their wisdom.

This is a very effective teaching method. Most good teachers will question their students to stimulate their brains and get them thinking about the situation at hand. I use it in my classroom all of the time.

He asked the questions to get the people to think for themselves as in the question after the parable of the Good Samaritan "so who do you think was the neighbour to the one in need?'

Because he did know everything, he also knew the best teaching method to use with those he was teaching.

Ever heard of a rhetorical question? I didn't think so. Why am I wasting my time on your question? You see, some questions are thrown out there so that the other person will answer them for themselves, get it?
