Exegesis
The phrase heis parestēkōs tōn hypēretōn {εἷς παρεστηκὼς τῶν ὑπηρετῶν | heîs pa-re-stē-kṓs tōn hy-pē-re-tôn} ‘one standing by of the officers’ narrows the crowd to a single representative, while the perfect participle emphasizes that he is already in place.
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 ?”
