KSA I am going to review the Greek you refer to but my wider point is that if the Father sent himself then the discussion of the Son being sent seems moot. Why the distinction? Jesus did not say: "I am the Father and I sent myself." Why not? And I think a further question would have to be in relation to the Father why did Jesus die on the cross? What is the significance of it?
