Exegesis
The perfect oida {οἶδα | oida} ‘I know’ with the negator Ouk {Οὐκ | Ouk} ‘not’ conveys settled non-recognition, and the question pothen este {πόθεν ἐστέ | pothen este} ‘from where you are’ specifies their unknown origin, heightening the theme of exclusion underscored by the closed thura {θύρα | thura}.
In context — Luke 13:25
When the master of the house rises and shuts the door , and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, “Lord , open to us,” then He will answer you, “I do not know where you are from.”
