Exegesis
The indirect object autō {αὐτῷ | au-tô} ‘to Him’ precedes the explicit subject hoi Pharisaiōi {οἱ Φαρισαῖοι | hoi Phar-i-saî-oi} ‘the Pharisees’, a common Greek ordering that foregrounds the recipient of speech before naming the speakers.
In context — John 8:13
Therefore the Pharisees said to Him , “You are testifying about Yourself; Your testimony is not true .”
