Exegesis
The second chain, ho de eme lambanōn lambanei ton pempsanta me {ὁ δὲ ἐμὲ λαμβάνων λαμβάνει τὸν πέμψαντά με | ho de eme lambanōn lambanei ton pempsanta me}, mirrors the first in balanced parallelism, with de {δὲ | de} adding a contrastive progression. The phrase ton pempsanta me identifies the Sender by the act of sending, completing the representative logic that reception of the messenger equals reception of the Sender’s authority.
