myself (as direct object, masculine singular)

Rootἐμαυτοῦ (emautou)
Core Meaningsmyself, my own self, of myself, reflexive self-reference
Semantic Rangemyself, me personally, my own self, by myself (contextually), self as object of one’s own action
Conceptual SignificanceThe reflexive intensifies personal involvement or responsibility, often underscoring self-giving, self-reference, or personal agency. In theological contexts it can highlight voluntary action (e.g., giving oneself) or personal testimony rooted in one’s own experience.
Morphological NotesGr,RE,,,1AMS = reflexive pronoun; 1st person; accusative case; masculine singular. Used of a male speaker referring to himself as the object of an action.
Rendering RationaleThe form ἐμαυτόν is the first-person reflexive pronoun in the accusative masculine singular, functioning as the direct object of a verb. "Myself" preserves the reflexive force (ἐμοῦ + αὐτός, "me-self"), and noting its direct-object, masculine singular form reflects the specific grammatical features encoded in the morphology.
