Exegesis

The following articular participial phrase ὁ μὴ γινώσκων τὸν νόμον {ὁ μὴ γινώσκων τὸν νόμον | ho mḕ ginṓ-skōn tón nó-mon} functions attributively, further defining the crowd as those who do not know the law; the negative particle me {μὴ | mḕ} attached to the present participle portrays an ongoing state of ignorance.

Root and etymology

temnōtau–epsilon–mu–nu–omega

to cut

In contextJohn 7:49
