OET (OET-RV) But Yeshua never fully entrusted himself to them, because he knew what people are like.
οὐκ ἐπίστευεν αὑτὸν αὐτοῖς
not /was/_entrusting (Some words not found in SR-GNT: αὐτὸς δὲ Ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἐπίστευεν ἑαυτὸν αὐτοῖς διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας)
Although many people were believing in him, Jesus knew that their belief was superficial and only lasted as long as he performed miracles for them. Therefore, he did not trust them the way he trusted his true disciples. Alternate translation: [did not trust them as true disciples] or [did not believe their belief in him]
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας
that him /to_be/_knowing all_‹men›
Although the word men is masculine, John is using the word here in a generic sense that includes both men and women. Alternate translation: [he knew all people]
2:24 John uses a play on words here. Because of his signs, many people trusted in Jesus (2:23), but Jesus didn’t trust them. This did not refer to specific people Jesus met in Jerusalem, but reflects his knowledge of all humanity.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
