Exegesis
The second half turns to a beatitude: makarioi {μακάριοι | ma-ká-ri-oi} is fronted for emphasis, and the articular participial phrase hoi mē idontes kai pisteusantes {οἱ μὴ ἰδόντες καὶ πιστεύσαντες | hoi mē i-dón-tes kai pis-teú-san-tes} functions substantivally to describe a whole class whose faith is not dependent on physical sight.
Root and etymology
eidepsilon–iota–delta
“to see, know”
In context — John 20:29
