<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was studying John 14:22 and Judas asks Jesus TI
GEGONEN HOTI HEMIN MELLEIS EMPHANIZEIN</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My question is how to understand TI GEGONEN. 
Does it mean </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>a)  "What has happened (that you now only
intend to show yourslef to us and not to the world)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>b) "Why (do you intend to show yourself only to us
and not to the world)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Choice (a) seems more literal, and this seems to be
the understanding of the NASB.  However, Jesus' reply seems to answer
option (b), and this is how the NIV translates it.  Robertson
(Grammar, 739) seems to understand it to mean something close to option
(b).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any comments on how to understand
this?</FONT></DIV>
