Exegesis
The phrase περὶ οὗ {περὶ οὗ | pe-rí hoû} ‘concerning whom’ introduces the topic of Jesus’ speech, while λέγει {λέγει | lé-gei} ‘is saying’ functions as a vivid historical present, keeping the scene immediate. The English renderings therefore preserve the gesture-first order, the purpose clause, and the tentative indirect question while smoothing the sentence into natural prose.
In context — John 13:24
Simon Peter therefore motioned to this one to ask who it might be that He was speaking about.
