ekeinos marks a specified person, time, place, or matter already indicated in the surrounding statement.

The supplied verses most often use the demonstrative to identify a person or group already present in the discourse; it also points to particular days, times, places, and stated matters. Its case, number, and gender vary with the referent, as shown by masculine, feminine, and neuter forms in the cited clauses.

1. Pointing to a specified person or group · dominant

   Masculine singular and plural forms identify persons already under discussion: in John 10:1 the APB renders the clause "that one is a thief and a robber," while in 1 Corinthians 15:11 it contrasts "I or they." In 1 John 2:6, the nominative singular form occurs in the comparison "just as that one walked."

   John 10:11 Corinthians 15:111 John 2:62 Timothy 2:13Acts 21:61 Corinthians 10:28
2. Pointing to a particular time or place · common

   Feminine forms mark a specified temporal or local setting. In Acts 8:1 the APB renders "on that day" for the day when persecution arose, and in Acts 8:8 it renders "in that city" where there was great joy; Acts 2:18 similarly has "in those days."

3. Pointing to a stated matter or thing · occasional

   Neuter and feminine forms can direct attention to a matter, light, covenant, letter, or other stated item. In Acts 22:11 the APB renders "that light," and in Hebrews 8:7 it speaks of "the first covenant" in the condition concerning a second; the supplied morphology shows neuter singular for the light and feminine singular for the covenant.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB variously presents the demonstrative through expressions such as "that one," "they," "that day," "those days," "that city," and "that light." These renderings show the clauses' reference patterns rather than a fixed English equivalent for every occurrence.
