Exegesis
The future verb apoktenei {ἀποκτενεῖ | a-pok-te-neî} with the reflexive pronoun heauton {ἑαυτὸν | he-au-tón} forms the compact clause “will he kill himself,” focusing the speculation on Jesus’ own action.
In context — John 8:22
So the Jews were saying, “Surely He will not kill Himself, will He, since He says, ‘Where I am going , you are not able to come’?”
