From Quran Interpretation and Debate

من أدبِه أن يلزمَ المرءُ تواضعًا معرفيًّا يرى الدليلَ، ويدركُ حدودَ فهمه، ويستحضر أن المقاصدَ أوسعُ من جزئيةٍ واحدة

Part of its etiquette is that a person maintains intellectual humility: seeing the evidence, recognizing the limits of his understanding, and remembering that the objectives are broader than a single issue.

وَيُدْرِكَ and to recognize

'and grasps / realizes,' joined by 'and,' a second mark of the humble person. Its object, 'the limits,' follows; he recognizes how far his own understanding actually reaches.
