Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
In the midst of you standeth (mesov umwn sthkei). Adjective as in John 19:18, not en mesw umwn. Present active indicative of late verb sthkw from perfect stem esthka. John had already baptized Jesus and recognized him as the Messiah.
Whom ye know not (on umeiv ouk oidate). This was the tragedy of the situation (John 1:11). Apparently this startling declaration excited no further inquiry from the committee.
