I suspect he is speaking from situational things he read about in the gospels

The only verse I've come across so far since this post is in John 2.
John 2:23-25
Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them,
for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind,
for he knew what was in each person.
Now, you may count this as "speaking from situational things in the gospels", I don't know. But it does seem to lend credence towards the thought that Jesus knows all people and what's in all people. If I come across anymore, I'll post them here.
Of course, there are times when it says "Jesus, knowing their thoughts" or something like that....when He's being questioned by the religious guys. So if He knows their thoughts, why wouldn't He know ours?
