This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
In the midst of you standeth (mesos humōn stēkei). Adjective as in Joh 19:18, not en mesōi humōn. Present active indicative of late verb stēkō from perfect stem hestēka. John had already baptized Jesus and recognized him as the Messiah.
Whom ye know not (hon humeis ouk oidate). This was the tragedy of the situation (Joh 1:11). Apparently this startling declaration excited no further inquiry from the committee.
