Dear Dagoberto,
About Matt 18:24 you ask:
>How can I describe the use of the genitive pronoun "autos" here?
>Many Translations render it "he", while others do not.
>While in the second pronoun it is translated "man", "one".
It refers to the king in both occurrences:
And when *he* began to settle accounts, there was brought to *him* one
debtor of ten thousand talents.
The first time it is the subject of an infinitive in a genitive absolute.
Then it is an indirect object.
Yours,
Harold Holmyard
