Exegesis
The disjunctive e {ἢ | ē} ‘or’ sets up a sharp alternative, while alloi {ἄλλοι | ál-loi} ‘others’ with eipon {εἶπόν | ei-pón} ‘said’ shifts the source from personal conviction to reported speech.
In context — John 18:34
Jesus answered, “Are you saying this from yourself, or did others speak to you about Me?”
