Exegesis
The causal conjunction dioti {διότι | dió-ti} ‘because’ introduces the reason clause, where the negative particle ou {οὐ | ou} negates paradexontai {παραδέξονταί | pa-ra-dé-xon-tai} ‘they will accept.’
In context — Acts 22:18
And I saw Him say to me, “Act quickly and leave Jerusalem at once, because they will not receive your testimony about Me.”
