Exegesis
The second half turns sharply with touton {τοῦτον | toû-ton} and de {δὲ | de}, and ouk oidamen {οὐκ οἴδαμεν | ouk oî-da-men} repeats the opening knowledge claim in negative form, creating a balanced contrast between what is affirmed and what is denied.
In context — John 9:29
We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, his origin is unknown to us.
