He
Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words [1]
"he himself and no other," emphatic, e.g., Matthew 1:21 , where the RV brings out the emphasis by the rendering "it is He;" Matthew 3:11 (last clause), where the repeated "He" brings out the emphasis; in some cases it can be marked only by a circumlocution which would not constitute a translation, e.g., Matthew 8:24; this use is very frequent, especially in the Gospels, the Epistles of John and the Apocalypse; see also, e.g., Ephesians 2:14; 4:11; 5:23,27 . See Same , Self , This , Very.
"this, this person here," is always emphatic; it is used with this meaning, sometimes to refer to what precedes, e.g., Matthew 5:19 , "he (shall be called great);" John 6:46 , "he (hath seen);" often rendered "this," e.g., Romans 9:9 , or "this man," e.g., Matthew 27:58 , RV; James 1:25; "the same," e.g., Luke 9:48 . See That , This , These.
denotes "that one, that person" (in contrast to No. 2); its use marks special distinction, favorable or unfavorable; this form of emphasis should always be noted; e.g., John 2:21 "(But) He (spake);" John 5:19 , "(what things soever) He (doeth);" John 7:11; 2—Corinthians 10:18 , lit., "for not he that commendeth himself, he (ekeinos) is approved;" 2—Timothy 2:13 , "He (in contrast to "we") abideth faithful;" 1—John 3:3 , "(even as) He (is pure);" 1—John 3:5 , "He (was manifested);" 1—John 3:7 , "He (is righteous);" 1—John 3:16 , "He laid down;" 1—John 4:17 , "(as) He (is)." See Other , That , This.

In this use of he, in the ludicrous style, the word has no variation of case. In the foregoing sentence, he is in the objective case, or position, and the word is to be considered as a noun.
6. He is sometimes prefixed to the names of animals to designate the male kind, as a he-goat, a he-bear. In such cases, he is to be considered as an adjective, or the two words as forming a compound.
