Exegesis
The clause begins with a genitive absolute, tauta de autou eipontos {ταῦτα δὲ αὐτοῦ εἰπόντος | taû-ta dè au-toû ei-pón-tos} ‘when He had said these things,’ which sets the scene before the main action and keeps the statement temporally detached from the subject of the next clause.
In context — John 18:22
Once Jesus had said these things, one of the officers standing nearby dealt Him a slap, saying, “Is that the proper way to answer the high priest ?”
