Exegesis
The direct quotation opens with Eipon hymin hoti egō eimi {Εἶπον ὑμῖν ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι | Eî-pon hy-mîn hó-ti e-gṓ eí-mi} ‘I told you that I am’; hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} introduces the content of the remembered statement, and egō eimi {ἐγώ εἰμι | e-gṓ eí-mi} stands as an absolute self-identification without an expressed predicate.
In context — John 18:8
Jesus answered, “I told you that I am. If, therefore, you are seeking Me, then allow these to depart.”
