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).
