Exegesis
The negated present verb pisteuousin {πιστεύουσιν | pisteúousin} portrays continuing unbelief rather than a single act of doubt, and eis eme {εἰς ἐμέ | eis emé} presents belief as movement toward Jesus personally.
The final placement of eme {ἐμέ | emé} gives Jesus prominence, making Him the decisive reference point by which sin is identified.
