Authority over all flesh (ecousian pashv sarkov). Sarkov is objective genitive. Stupendous claim impossible for a mere man to make. Made already in Matthew 11:27; Luke 10:22 (Q, the Logia of Jesus, our earliest known document about Jesus) and repeated in Matthew 28:18 after his resurrection.
That (ina). Secondary purpose with ina dwsei (future active indicative) carrying on the idea of ina docash. See John 13:34; John 17:21 for ina, kaqws, ina.
Whatsoever (pan o). A peculiar classical Greek idiom, the collective use of the singular pan o as in John 6:37, John 6:39 and o in John 17:24 and the nominative absolute (nom. pendens) with autoiv (to them), the dative plural explaining the construction. See Robertson, Grammar, p. 653.
