{Shall confess me} (homolog(8873)ei en emoi). An Aramaic
idiom, not Hebrew, see also  Lu 12:8 . So also here, "him will I
also confess" (homolog(8873)(9320)k'ag(9320)en aut(9369)). Literally this
Aramaic idiom reproduced in the Greek means "confess in me,"
indicating a sense of unity with Christ and of Christ with the
man who takes the open stand for him.
