John 6:70

αὐτοῖς. He replies to all, not to their spokesman only.

οὐκ ἐγὼ ὑμᾶς τ. δ. ἐξ. Note the order throughout. Did not I choose (John 13:18; John 15:16) you the Twelve? Here probably the question ends: and of you one is a devil is best punctuated without an interrogation; it is a single statement in tragic contrast to the preceding question (comp. John 7:19). It would be closer to the Greek to omit the article before ‘devil’ and make it a kind of adjective; and of you one is devil, i.e. devilish in nature: but this is hardly English. The words contain a half-rebuke to S. Peter for his impetuous avowal of loyalty in the name of them all. The passage stands alone in the N.T. (comp. Matthew 16:23), but its very singularity is evidence of its truth. S. John is not likely to have forgotten what was said, or in translating to have made any serious change.
