Exegesis
Ouk egnosan {οὐκ ἔγνωσαν | ouk égnōsan} states their failure as a finished lack of comprehension, and the embedded question tina en ha elalei autois {τίνα ἦν ἃ ἐλάλει αὐτοῖς | tína ēn ha elálei autoîs} combines an interrogative pronoun with a relative clause to ask what sort of thing He was speaking.
In context — John 10:6
This parable Jesus spoke to them, but they did not discern what it was that He was saying to them.
