Concerning Revelation 3:17: hOTI LEGEIS hOTI PLOUSIOS EIMI KAI 
PEPLOUQHKA KAI OUDEN CREIAN ECW KAI OUK OIDAS hOTI SU EI hO 
TALAIPWROS KAI ELEEINOS KAI PTWCOS KAI TUFLOS KAI GUMNOS

Is this a simple statement of the way the Laodiceans are or is it a 
question that the writer assumes has an affirmative answer: Don't you 
know you're wretched?  Of course you do.

My question centers around the use of OUK before OIDAS and its affect on 
the rest of the passage.  This appears as a straight statement of fact 
in all of the translations I have read.

Please be kind to the teknion (Gal. 4:19).
