Exegesis
The following assertion ouk eimi ego {οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐγώ | ouk eimí e-gṓ} uses explicit first person ego for emphasis, “I myself am not,” sharpening his denial of being the expected figure.
In context — Acts 13:25
And as John was completing his course , he was saying, “What do you suppose me to be? I am not he, but behold, One is coming after me, the sandal of whose feet I am not worthy to loosen.”
