Proverbs 30:1-4 — God and his Son in the Hebrew Bible

Agur son of Jakeh meditates on the incomprehensibility of God: "Who has ascended to heaven and come down? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment?" — the implicit answer is God. Then: "What is his name, and what is his son's name? Surely you know!" The rhetorical question is a Hebrew idiom — "to know someone's name" means to understand their nature. Agur's point: just as God's nature is incomprehensible, so is his son's nature. This implies two divine persons whose natures exceed human comprehension. McLatchie notes "son of God" can have multiple OT connotations (Adam in Luke 3, Israel in Hosea 11:1, Davidic king in 2 Samuel 7/Psalm 89), but the context here points to a divine co-equal figure.
