Exegesis
The demonstrative ekeinos {ἐκεῖνος | e-kei-nos} ‘that one’ keeps the subject identifiable from the surrounding context without naming him again, while houtos {οὕτως | hoú-tōs} ‘thus, in this way’ adds emphasis to the manner of reclining.
In context — John 13:25
That one, having reclined thus upon the chest of Jesus , says to Him, “Lord , who is it?”
