The verb, “eimi” occurs 2462 times in the new testament in various forms, but in only about 67 of these cases is the first person nominative pronoun, “ego” used with it. Quite a different verb (ἐγενετο [egeneto], became) appears in verse 14 for the beginning of the incarnation of the logos. The new testament shows an interesting and (somewhat) unexpected pattern in the use of the greek phrase, “ego eimi”, “i am”
The exact phrase “ego eimi” occurs 48 times in the new testament Three times in this sentence john uses this imperfect of εἰμι [eimi] to be which conveys no idea of origin for god or for the logos, simply continuous existence It also occurs 11 times as “eimi ego” which has a very similar but still different construction and all are relational or predicative.
Jesus did not say ego eimi ho on in john 8:58
As what is shown on the lxx The appearance of ho on revelation 1:4;8, 4:8, 11:17and 16:5 are all applied to god and not to jesus Exodus 3:14 should be read from the context of the whole passage. The standard way to translate jesus' john 8:58 statement is "before abraham was, i am."
Yet, a minority position is to translate 8:58b as 'i am he' This is the view taken by sozzini as. What is the oldest record of the interpretation that the "I am" ego eimi in John 8:58 claim is Yahweh claim of Exodus 3:14? Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ἰησοῦς ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν πρὶν Ἀβραὰμ γενέσθαι ἐγὼ. The absolute use of the greek egō eimi (without complement or predicate) is (in the words of c.k
Barrett) hardly a greek expression, .ἐγώ εἰμι is in itself (as greek) a meaningless expression.
The john 8 usage is often taken in tandem with the other occurrence in the gospels of the absolute egō eimi, that found in mark 14:62
