Exegesis
The verse begins with the finite verb–particle sequence eipon oun {εἶπον οὖν | eî-pon oûn}, presenting a narrative past statement (“they said”) and linking it inferentially to the preceding discourse.
The interrogative–particle pair Ti oun {Τί οὖν | Tí oûn} opens the first question, with ti functioning as an accusative interrogative object and oun marking a logical “then” in light of what has just been claimed about the work of God.
