Exegesis
The form ēdeisan {ᾔδεισαν | ēdeisan} indicates a settled state of non-recognition, and the content clause hoti Iesous estin {ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν | hóti Iēsous estin} identifies exactly what remained ungrasped.
The repetition of Iesous {Ἰησοῦς | Iēsous} frames the verse around a visible figure whose identity is present but not yet recognized.
