Exegesis
The opening clause ho de ephē autō {ὁ δὲ ἔφη αὐτῷ | ho dè é-phē au-tô} combines a nominative article used substantivally as the subject (“He”), the postpositive connective particle de linking this response to the preceding dialogue, the imperfect verb ephē as a narrative speech-introduction, and the dative pronoun autō indicating the person addressed.
In context — Matthew 22:37
But He said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind .”
