Exegesis
The adversative all ekeinos me apesteilen {ἀλλʼ ἐκεῖνός με ἀπέστειλεν | all e-kei-nós me a-pé-stei-len} culminates the sequence with a strongly marked demonstrative ekeinos in subject position, highlighting “that One” (God) as the decisive Sender. In translation, the second-class conditional is rendered with “If … were … you would …” to preserve the unreal force; the explanatory gar clauses are reflected with “for” and “because,” and aspectual differences (aorist, present, perfect) are conveyed through “came out,” “am here,” and “have come” / “have not come,” underscoring both Jesus’ origin in God and the divine initiative in His mission.
