Exegesis
The relative clause hon ēgapa ho Iēsous {ὃν ἠγάπα ὁ Ἰησοῦς | hon ēgapa ho Iēsous} then identifies the disciple more precisely and uses the imperfect ēgapa {ἠγάπα | ēgapa} to portray Jesus’ love as continuing and characteristic rather than momentary.
The article ho {ὁ | ho} before Iēsous {Ἰησοῦς | Iēsous} marks the known subject of the relative clause. In English, the order is reshaped so the relational focus remains clear while preserving the progressive force of the Greek imperfects and the intimacy of the scene.
In context — John 13:23
One of His disciples was reclining in the bosom of Jesus , the one whom Jesus loved.
