Exegesis

The negation ouk {οὐκ | oûk} with the aorist verb egnōsan {ἔγνωσαν | égnōsan} ‘they knew’ stresses a complete lack of awareness up to a decisive moment marked by heōs {ἕως | héōs} ‘until’.

In contextMatthew 24:39

And they did not know until the flood came and took them all away ; in this way also will be the coming of the Son of Man .
