ἐρχόμενον (erchomenon) in John 1:29: Verb Present Middle or Passive Deponent Participle Accusative Singular Masculine

Noun: this label names a person, thing, idea, or reality, but the witness form here is not a noun; it is a participial form of a verb.

Present: often views the action as in progress, customary, or presently in view. Context decides the exact force.

Middle or Passive Deponent: uses a middle or passive form traditionally read with active sense. The lexeme and sentence still govern the meaning.

Participle: carries a verbal idea while also functioning like an adjective or clause element. Context decides its role.

Accusative: this form is shaped to fit an accusative slot, so it can describe the object Jesus as the one being seen, without by itself deciding the full syntax.

Singular: this form is grammatically singular in this occurrence and refers to one participant in the clause, not a group.

Masculine: this is the masculine grammatical class, which agrees with the noun it describes and does not by itself make a theological gender claim.

τὸν Ἰησοῦν

The participle is linked to the accusative object of βλέπει and describes Jesus as the one John sees coming toward him.

It functions descriptively, giving Jesus a present, in-progress action within the scene rather than introducing a separate main clause.

It does not function as the main verb, and it does not by itself require the sense of a different subject or a new grammatical object.

High: The participle places Jesus in motion toward John immediately before the Lamb of God testimony.

Accusative participle modifying the object. describes Jesus within the object phrase of what John sees. Attached to Jesus as the one John sees coming toward him. Governed by the seeing clause in John 1:29. The participle is descriptive and scene-setting, not a separate main verb.

What does John see Jesus doing? John sees Jesus coming toward him before he identifies him as the Lamb of God.

Direct: The participle directly supports a rendering such as "Jesus coming toward him."

The middle/passive deponent label does not require passive agency. The accusative participle modifies Jesus as object of the seeing clause; it does not create a new subject.

Participle creates a separate main event: The participle describes Jesus in the seeing scene; the finite verb controls the clause. present participle proves continuous doctrine: The present participle portrays the scene without carrying the theology of John 1:29 by itself.

The text reads, ὁ Ἰωάννης τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐρχόμενον πρὸς αὐτόν, so the form sits directly with Jesus in the scene of seeing.

The lemma ἔρχομαι means to come or go, so the form contributes motion or approach language without changing the lemma into another word.

Its participial form lets the narration picture Jesus as coming toward John while John sees him, supporting a scene of approach.

The verse presents John noticing Jesus as he comes toward him, and then John identifies him as the Lamb of God.

This fits the wider Gospel pattern in which Jesus is identified and revealed in concrete actions and public testimony.

For readers, the form helps the sentence feel immediate and visual, not abstract or detached from the moment.

Do not derive from the participle alone any claim about completed arrival, repeated action, or a special theological category beyond the context.
