Exegesis
The indirect object auto {αὐτῷ | au-tō} identifies the one addressed, and Thomas {Θωμᾶς | Thō-mās} appears before the vocative Kyrie {Κύριε | ký-ri-e}, framing the speech as a respectful appeal.
In context — John 14:5
Thomas spoke to Him, “Lord , we do not know where You are going; how are we able to know the way ?”
