Exegesis
The emphatic first-person pronoun ego {ἐγώ | e-gō}, together with the prepositional phrase ex emautou {ἐξ ἐμαυτοῦ | ex e-mau-toû}, places strong focus on the subject and explicitly denies that Jesus is the independent origin of His words.
In context — John 12:49
For I have not spoken from Myself, but the Father who sent Me, He Himself has given Me a commandment—what I should say and what I should speak.
