‏ John 20:15

Sir ( Κυριε ). Clearly not "Lord" here, for she thought him to be "the gardener" ( ο κηπουρος ), old word ( κηποσ, ουρος ), keeper of the garden, only here in the N.T.

If thou hast borne him hence ( ε συ εβαστασος αυτον ). Condition of the first class. Note emphasis on συ (thou). A new idea struck Mary as mistaken as the other one. Jesus had repeated the question of the angels, but she did not recognize him.

And I ( καγω ). Emphasis and crasis.
