Exegesis
This is followed immediately by the negative verb phrase ouk egnōsan {οὐκ ἔγνωσαν | ouk ég-nō-san} ‘did not understand’, which frames the disciples’ initial incomprehension.
In context — John 12:16
His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written about Him and that they had done these things to Him.
