Exegesis
The present middle/passive indicative planasthe {Πλανᾶσθε | Pla-nâ-sthe} ‘you are mistaken’ emphasizes ongoing misunderstanding, followed by the negative participle clause mē eidotes {μὴ εἰδότες | mḕ ei-dó-tes} ‘not knowing.’
In context — Matthew 22:29
But Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God .”
