Exegesis
The verse opens with an articular participial construction ho athetōn eme kai mē lambanōn ta rhēmata mou {ὁ ἀθετῶν ἐμὲ καὶ μὴ λαμβάνων τὰ ῥήματά μου | ho a-the-tōn e-mè kai mē lam-ba-nōn ta rhē-ma-tá mou}. The article ho turns the present participles athetōn and lambanōn into a substantive description, yielding “the one who is rejecting Me and not receiving My words,” which functions as the grammatical subject of the main clause.
In context — John 12:48
The one rejecting Me and not receiving My words has a judge: the word which I have spoken, that very word will judge him in the last day.
