Exegesis
The direct speech is introduced without a quotation formula, moving straight into the interrogative clause Me kai humeis peplanesthe {Μὴ καὶ ὑμεῖς πεπλάνησθε | Mḕ kaí hy-meîs pe-plá-nē-sthe}.
The combination kai humeis {καὶ ὑμεῖς | kaí hy-meîs} ‘also you’ or ‘you too’ highlights the addressees as surprisingly included among those allegedly deceived, adding a tone of social boundary enforcement.
In context — John 7:47
Therefore the Pharisees answered them, “Have you also been deceived ?”
