I think thats a test, not really that he didn't know. You know kind of like how your girlfriend asks you a question when she knows the answer, but she really just wants to hear you say what shes hoping you'll say. 

If God was omniscient he would not need to do a test - he would know how the test goes beforehand!

If god was omniscient, you wouldn't know how his intellect and reasoning work.

Not necessarily true. Omniscience has an exact definition - knowing all things. This makes no preclusions on whether his intellect or reasoning is understandable (or not).

Even if god supposedly has a similar intelligence level to a human being. Knowing all things does indeed make him not fully understandable by us. As George Orwell says:

"There are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them" According to this fact, there are other ideas that only an omniscient entity such as god could understand.

 

S.T.A.G.E could've used a better example though. Because "hope" somewhat verifies god's incomplete knowledge.

Hmmm, I'm not convinced. My computer has capabilities that are beyond my powers, yet I fully understand how it works. I imagine it is at least possible to understand how an omniscient entity reasons without being omniscient yourself.
