Exegesis
The verse begins with the participial form gnous {γνοὺς | gnoùs} ‘having known,’ which functions adverbially, giving the causal ground for the main verb eipen {εἶπεν | eîpen} ‘he said.’
In context — Matthew 22:18
But Jesus , having known their wickedness , said, “Why do you test Me, hypocrites?”
