It does not mean that God became a knowledge he did not have before he made it. For God does not have a body, such that seeing and thinking would be different, but is eternal and unchangeable, such that the past, present and future are comprehended without transition of thought.
It is instead a statement of approval for us to know it was Gods will that was why it was created. This also Plato has assigned as the most sufficient reason for the creation of the world, that good works might be made by a good God. This completes our knowledge about the creation:
- who created, was God;
- how it was created, was by the word of God
- why it was created, the will of God.
