Exegesis
In the causal clause introduced by gar {γὰρ | gar} ‘for’, the accusative noun agnōsian {ἀγνωσίαν | ag-nō-sí-an} ‘ignorance’ functions as the object of echousin {ἔχουσιν | é-khou-sin} ‘they have’, yielding ‘for some have ignorance’.
In context — 1 Corinthians 15:34
Sober up rightly, and do not sin; for some have ignorance of God ; I say this to your shame .
