Exegesis
The conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} marks the content clause that follows, in which sperma Abraam {σπέρμα Ἀβραάμ | spér-ma Abra-ám} ‘seed of Abraham’ stands as a predicate nominative with este {ἐστε | é-ste} ‘you are’, defining the audience’s physical lineage.
In context — John 8:37
I know that you are Abraham’s seed, but you seek to kill Me because My word does not find room in you.
