Winer writes: “The pronoun [houʹtos] sometimes refers, not to the noun locally nearest, but to one more remote, which, as the principal subject, was mentally the nearest, the most present to the writer’s thoughts.” —A Grammar of the Idiom of the New Testament, 7th edition, 1897.
Winer: “Ang panghalip [na houʹtos] kung minsan ay tumutukoy, hindi sa pinakamalapit na pangngalan, kundi sa isa na mas malayo, na, bilang pangunahing simuno, sa isip ay siyang pinakamalapit, na siya mismong nasa kaisipan ng manunulat.” —A Grammar of the Idiom of the New Testament, ika-7 edisyon, 1897.jw2019 jw2019
