τοῦ Ἰωάννου
¬the ˱of˲_John
John refers to Jesus’ cousin, often referred to as “John the Baptist.” (See: johnthebaptist) It does not refer to the apostle John, who wrote this Gospel. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [of John the Baptist] or [of John the Immerser]

ἀπέστειλαν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι
sent_out the Jews
Here, the Jews refers to the “Jewish leaders.” If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the Jewish leaders sent]
1:19–12:50 Jesus reveals himself to the world through his miraculous signs and sermons. Audiences were divided: Some wanted to believe in him; others opposed him. This division intensifies as the book unfolds. Jesus ended his public ministry with a final appeal for people to believe in him (12:44-50).
