Exegesis
The clause opens with the fronted direct object tas entolas {τὰς ἐντολὰς | tàs en-to-lás} ‘the commandments’, followed by the perfect active indicative oidas {οἶδας | oî-das} ‘you know’, which presents these commands as already familiar to the hearer.
In context — Luke 18:20
You know the commandments : “Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness; honor your father and your mother.”
