Exegesis
This is followed by an accusative-plus-infinitive construction, Iōannēn prophētēn einai {Ἰωάννην προφήτην εἶναι | Iō-án-nēn pro-phḗ-tēn eî-nai}, which expresses the content of that conviction: “that John is a prophet.” The syntax thus moves from conditional possibility to inevitable reaction, with the perfect participle signaling a deeply ingrained belief that constrains the leaders’ options.
In context — Luke 20:6
But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John is a prophet .
