Exegesis

The clause introduced by Ouk apestalēn {Οὐκ ἀπεστάλην | ouk apestálēn} “I was not sent” uses aorist passive indicative to portray a completed commissioning event in the past, with the passive voice highlighting Jesus as the One commissioned by Another.

In contextMatthew 15:24

But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
