Prophet Mohammed once said :

“O Allah, I am Your slave, and the son of Your male slave, and the son of your female slave. My forehead is in Your Hand (i.e. you have control over me). Your Judgment upon me is assured, and Your Decree concerning me is just. I ask You by every Name that You have named Yourself with, revealed in Your Book, taught any one of Your creation, or kept unto Yourself in the knowledge of the unseen that is with You, to make the Qur'an the spring of my heart, and the light of my chest, the banisher of my sadness, and the reliever of my distress.”

I asked if you believed to come to the knowledge of God is to come to the knowledge of "a" man i.e. self.
Not the knowledge of "man" i.e. human beings.

God's knowledge given to just a single man to understand then to teach to those who are willing to receive teaching.

All knowledge comes from and is of God.

Does the Quran affirm this understanding or is my comprehension of the relationship of God and man askewed?

God sent many prophets throughout history to teach humankind the word and teachings of God and the test is wether they accept it or or not.
From Adam to Mohammed.
