Exegesis
A second question is formed around the nominative subject Oudeis {Οὐδείς | Ou-deís} ‘no one’ and the verb katekrinen {κατέκρινεν | ka-té-kri-nen} ‘condemned,’ with the object se {σε | se} ‘you.’ The progression from “Where are they?” to “Has no one condemned you?” creates rhetorical emphasis on the disappearance of the accusers and the lack of condemnation, preparing for the declarative assurance in the following verse. English rendering maintains this two-part interrogative sequence and the temporal flow from Jesus’ physical action to His judicially charged questions.
