Greetings.
Rather puzzled by the Greek of part of John 8:40. Most translations render
it something like: "As it is, you are determined to kill me, a man who has
told you the truth that I heard from God." The difficulty is that "who has
told you" is first person singular (lelalaaka) rather than third (lelalaake)
as in the translations. Or does this have something to do with the relative
pronoun and the "me" in the preceding phrase? Maybe I am overlooking
something obvious but none of the grammarians seem to say anything about
this.
Thoughts on this would be helpful.
