Luke 24:17 ("And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?") is occasionally categorized by critics as "deceit" under the rubric of Jesus' omniscience as God. While this objection often involves a misunderstanding of how Christ's divine and human natures interact within orthodox Christianity, more simply, it fails to recognize that in this societal context, questions of this sort were often asked rhetorically and for the sake of eliciting answers.
