Here [[perhaps]] [[may]] be noticed its [[use]] [[together]] [[with]] [[αὐτός]] of the [[same]] [[subject]] in the [[same]] [[sentence]]: ἐζωγρημένοι ὑπ' [[αὐτοῦ]] (i. e. the [[devil]]) [[εἰς]] τό ἐκείνου [[θέλημα]], [[Thucydides]] 1,132, 6; 4,29, 3; [[Xenophon]], Cyril 4,5, 20; [[see]] Riddell, the Apology of [[Plato]], Appian, § 49; Kühner, § 467,12; cf. [[ζωγρέω]] 2); equivalent to an [[emphatic]] (German er) Hebrews , etc., der ([[that]] [[one]] etc.), in [[which]] [[sense]] it serves to [[recall]] and [[lay]] [[stress]] [[upon]] nouns [[just]] [[before]] used (cf.

John's [[use]] of the pronoun [[ἐκεῖνος]] is discussed by Steitz in the Studien und Kritiken for 1859, p. 497ff; 1861, p. 267ff, and by Alex. Buttmann, ibid. 1860, p. 505ff and in Hilgenfeld's Zeitsch. für wissenschaftl. Theol. 1862, p. 204ff; Buttmann [[clearly]] proves in [[opposition]] to Steitz [[that]] John's [[usage]] deviates in no [[respect]] from the Greek; Steitz, [[however]], resorts to psychological considerations in the [[case]] of [[ἐκεῖνος]] [[there]] as expressing the [[writer]]'s [[inward]] [[assurance]]. But Steitz is [[now]] understood to [[have]] modified his published views.)
