Exegesis
The construction ei mē {εἰ μὴ | ei mē} functions as an exceptive clause, “unless,” governing the substantival participial phrase ho echōn {ὁ ἔχων | ho échōn} “the one who has.”
In context — Revelation 13:17
And so that no one might be able to buy or to sell unless he has the mark, the name of the beast , or the number of his name.
