Exegesis

The sentence begins with ho de eipen {ὁ δὲ εἶπεν | ho de eî-pen}, where ho is a narrative subject marker referring back to Jesus in the context, and de is a postpositive conjunction that here has a mildly continuative sense, well rendered as “but” or “then” to show the next step in the scene. The aorist verb eipen presents a simple, completed speech act, a typical narrative backbone verb in the Gospels.
