Exegesis
The verse begins with kai {καί | kaí} linking this saying to the surrounding discourse, followed by the imperfect elegen {ἔλεγεν | é-le-gen} which portrays an ongoing or repeated assertion rather than a single remark.
In context — John 8:23
And He was saying to them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world ; I am not of this world.”
