‏ John 5:45

 Think not ( μη δοκειτε ). Prohibition with  μη and the present imperative. See on verse 39 for  δοκεω for mistaken opinions in John.

 I will accuse you ( εγω κατηγορησω υμων ). Emphasis on  εγω (I). Future active indicative of  κατηγορεω ( κατα, against,  αγορευω, to speak in the assembly  αγορα, to bring an accusation in court, a public accusation). See Ro 3:9 for  προαιτιαομα for making previous charge and Lu 16:1 for  διαβαλλω, a secret malicious accusation, and Ro 8:33 for  εγκαλεω, for public charge, not necessarily before tribunal.

 Even Moses ( Μωυσης ). No "even" in the Greek.

 On whom ye have set your hope ( εις ον υμεις ηλπικατε ). Perfect active indicative of  ελπιζω, state of repose in Moses. Only example of  ελπιζω in John. See 2Co 1:10 for use of  εις with  ελπιζω instead of the usual  επ (1Ti 4:10).
