Exegesis
The rhetorical question Ouk estin gegrammenon {Οὐκ ἔστιν γεγραμμένον | Ouk é-stin ge-gram-mé-non} ‘is it not written’ appeals to an established text whose authority is already in place; the perfect participle gegrammenon presents the cited wording as enduring and still binding.
In context — John 10:34
Jesus replied to them, “Has it not been recorded in your Law , ‘I said, You are gods’?”
