KAI e-pê-RÔ-tê-sen au-TON ho pi-LA-tos SY EI ho ba-si-LEUS tÔN i-ou-da-I-ôn ho de a-po-kri-THEIS au-TÔI LE-gei SY LE-geis
Exegesis
Pilate’s direct question uses the emphatic subject pronoun Sy {σύ | sý} with the verb ei {εἶ | eî}, Sy ei ho basileus tōn Ioudaiōn {Σὺ εἶ ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων | sý eî ho ba-si-leús tōn I-ou-daí-ōn}, where the article ho with basileus {βασιλεύς | ba-si-leús} marks “the King” as a specific, possibly official title.
The genitive tōn Ioudaiōn {τῶν Ἰουδαίων | tōn I-ou-daí-ōn} indicates the people over whom this kingship would extend, highlighting the political and ethnic dimension of the charge.
In context — Mark 15:2
And Pilate asked Him , “Are You the King of the Jews?” And answering, He said to him, “You say so.”
