Exegesis

The verse opens with the reply formula apekrithe ekeinos kai eipen {ἀπεκρίθη ἐκεῖνος καὶ εἶπεν | a-pe-krí-thē e-keî-nos kai ei-pen}, introducing the question without a narrative break.

The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} then connects into the interrogative clause led by tis {τίς | tís}, focusing on the unknown identity.

In contextJohn 9:36

He answered and said, "Sir , who then is He, so that I may believe in Him?"
