Exegesis
The verse begins with the clause ho de eipen autō {ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ | ho dè eî-pen au-tō}, where the article ho functions anaphorically to resume the previously mentioned subject (Jesus) and de marks a mild transition, often rendered “but.” The aorist eipen introduces direct speech, and the dative autō identifies the addressee.
