Exegesis
The negative ou {οὐ | ou} modifies peripatousin {περιπατοῦσιν | peripatoûsin} “do they walk,” where the verb “walk” has the idiomatic sense of “conduct themselves, live.”
In context — Mark 7:5
And the Pharisees and the scribes asked Him , “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat the bread with common hands?”
