kakeinos points to an additional or contrasted person, group, or thing already in view.

The attested use consistently points beyond the immediate subject to an additional or contrasted referent: a person, a group, or a thing already identifiable in the clause or setting. Its forms occur with singular and plural, masculine and neuter referents without evidence here for separate lexical senses.

  1. Reference to an additional or contrasted referent · dominant

    The forms identify another person or group within a comparison or sequence: in 1 Corinthians 10:6 the APB renders a contrast between "us" and "those ones" who desired evil things, while in Acts 15:11 it sets "we" alongside "they." In Mark 12:4, accusative singular masculine κἀκεῖνον marks the further slave whom the tenants beat and dishonored; in Acts 18:19, accusative plural masculine κἀκείνους identifies those whom he left at Ephesus. Neuter forms extend the same reference to things, as Matthew 15:18 speaks of "those things" coming from the heart and defiling a person.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across these verses, the APB variously presents the referent as "those ones," "that one," "those there," or "those things." These renderings reflect the surrounding clauses, not a fixed word-for-word alignment.
