Patrick A. Tiller 62 This passage demonstrates both the application of the rule and the prob- lems with it. Clearly, when one «stands steadfast in his heart,» one is not the agent of action that is received by the heart, and so the reflexive is not used. It is equally clear that the virgin who is kept does directly receive the action of the «keeper.» And so the reflexive is used. But in the case of acting inde- cently toward ones virgin, the virgin does not seem to be entirely outside of the line of action; one would expect the reflexive. In the light of the next counter-example, it may be that the indefiniteness of the subject may have some influence on the choice of the non-reflexive in marginal cases. 1 Cor 11:4 pa~ ajnh;r proseucovmeno~ h\ profhteuvwn kata; kefalh`~ e[cwn ` every man praying or prophesying on head having kataiscunei th;n kefalh;n aujtou`. v shames the head of-him. Every man who has something on his head while praying or prophesying shames his head. According to rule (8), this should be reflexive. Perhaps the fact that the trigger is as indefinite as possible influences the choice of the personal pronoun. But this is not consistent. Other examples that seem equally indefinite have the reflexive. More likely it is because the verb expresses the point of view of the speaker and not that of the trigger. In the next verse ajdelfovn (‘brother’) is used metaphorically of fellow members of the church. It may be that the reflexive was not used because «brother» is used metaphorically. It does seem that the brother (the NP that governs the pronoun) directly receives the action of which the poten- tial trigger is the agent. 1 Thess 4:6 to; mh; uJperbaivnein kai; pleonektei`n ejn tw'/ pravgmati the not to-transgress and defraud in the matter ton ajdelfo;n aujtou` ... ; the brother of-him ... Not to transgress and defraud his brother in this matter ... It is possible that the reflexive is not used here because the transgres- sion and fraud are expressed from the point of view of the writer and not that of the subject of the sentence. These conclusions have some significance for one’s understanding of the next verse, which uses the reflexive according to rule (8,2).
