Exegesis
The dative autō {αὐτῷ | au-tôi} identifies the recipient before the speaker is named, and the postposed subject ho Iesous {ὁ Ἰησοῦς | ho Iē-soûs} gives prominence to Jesus as the authoritative voice.
In context — John 20:29
Jesus says to him, “Since you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who did not see and yet believed.”
