SIBI-P1 G846-07

to him-self

Rootαὐτός (autos)
Core Meaningsself, same, very, he/she/it, personal identity, emphasis
Semantic Rangehe, him, she, it, they; himself, herself, itself; the same; very; emphasis on identity; in the dative: to/for him, in him, with him, by him (depending on context).
Conceptual Significanceαὐτός anchors personal identity and emphasis in Greek discourse. In biblical texts it often intensifies subject reference ("he himself"), marks divine self-revelation, or clarifies relational direction ("to him"), underscoring personal agency and covenant relationship.
Morphological NotesGr,RP,,,3DMS: personal/reflexive pronoun, 3rd person, dative case, masculine singular; functioning as an indirect object or dative of reference/advantage.
Rendering RationaleThe lemma αὐτός fundamentally denotes "self" or "same," often functioning as an intensive or third-person pronoun. The form αὐτῷ is dative masculine singular (3rd person), so "to him-self" preserves both the dative case ("to") and the reflexive/intensive core sense of "self," while reflecting masculine singular reference.
