Exegesis
The first question, ouk oidamen {οὐκ οἴδαμεν | ouk oi-da-men} with pou {ποῦ | poû} and hypageis {ὑπάγεις | hy-pá-geis}, focuses on destination; the perfect form carries present-state force, describing an ongoing lack of understanding.
In context — John 14:5
Thomas spoke to Him, “Lord , we do not know where You are going; how are we able to know the way ?”
