Exegesis
The participial phrase mē eidotes {μὴ εἰδότες | mḗ ei-dó-tes} ‘not knowing’ is nominative masculine plural, syntactically linked to the implied subject ‘you’ of planasthe, and provides the causal ground for their error: ignorance.
In context — Mark 12:24
Jesus said to them, “Are you not mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God ?”
